Are some things this hard for people to grasp?
yaani monthly salary ni one shilling
In the late 50’s,my grandpa-in-law first salary was 33 kshs…He showed me his account books.
per month or year?
Sasa the joke is that part of the 33 shillings was painstakingly saved and used to buy land that some people today say was stolen.
By the way, with the govt now taxing even chicken and cattle and bicycles, why cant all employees also raise salaries?
Exactly!!
For the lazier younglings here, £15-30 an acre meant 300-600 shillings. A 10 acre piece would be 3000 to 6000.Today, that one acre can fetch 60 million.
i was thinking about it and the thought was the ballers of those times would have a net worth of aroung 1 shilling…just imagine
Shilinginaire
hahahahaha…
