Or has the c note gone the way of the dime like for Boomers?

That's a dinner for two or a movie for four now, so no.

It all depends on how you use it…

Not on this board. We are all filthy rich! Right, gentlemen?

I usually tip a C note to the boy who cleans my spats and retrieves my top hat from the haberdashery.

For a decent dinner for 4? It’s not a lot of money.
For a Parke sweatshirt that my 15 year old wants? It’s still a lot.

Gets me a lot of pints of Guinness still.
Also basically minimum for lunch on Saturday at the sports bar.
So…. Maybe?

A $1000 isn’t a lot of money anymore

My wife and I met up with a friend of my wife's sister to get a piece of furniture tonight. He was at a casino about 20 miles away from our house so we decided to play a bit.
I took out a $100 and cashed out when my balance got to $90. I played the nickel machines for about an hour.
I just spent $23,000 on new windows and a sliding glass door for the house.
$100 is big to me, but also nothing in my grand scheme of things.
I'll spend $600 on a meal to celebrate a birthday. You couldn't squeeze $6 out of me for a loaf of bread.
I say all that to say, $100 is still an amount of money that I don't want to spend.

If you don't want yours I'll take it.

I still feel it's a lot of money, but I also know it isn't worth much.

If you grew up in a world where $100 was a lot (like I did) you will always consider it so.
Grandparents sending birthday checks for like $5 are further proof of if that, they arent being cheap they just remember how when they were a kid $5 was a small fortune.

Wasn’t enough to get an Uber driver to wait 15 minutes for my Taco Bell order after an lsu game.

It depends on the corner your vehicle is idling in.
