Here in the US In the 1950s and 1960s it generally required one worker (usually the Dad) to work one 40 hour job, to buy a house and a car, pay all the bills, put the kids through school, and retire, often with a pension.

Two of my uncles were barbers, right off the boat, and both purchased 2 family homes, for example.

If you don't think that the "American Dream" is dead, you are not facing reality.
