Imagine having a serviceman of any sort arrive at your house, fix your problem, and present you with a bill of $6 - parts included. He would walk away satisfied that he had done a good job and was well compensated for the work considering the effort invested in training and qualification. $6 in 1932 when this Radio Training Association of America ad appeared in Radio-Craft magazine, per the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Inflation Calculator is worth $135 in 2023 money - that's a cheap service call even in today's economy. Further, the $14 stated as a day's earnings is $316 in 2023, which equates to 50 work weeks/year x 5 days/week x $316/day = $79,000/year - not too shabby. Just between you and me, that's more than I'm currently making per year.
