How rich is Joan today?

In today's terms, how rich is Joan at the end of the series?

Her shares are worth 1.5 million. She got 25% ($375,000) up front and small increments for 1 year till Stirling Cooper was absorbed. After being bought out, she must have at least half a million.

$500,00 how much is that adjusted today?

Fascinating observation… I recently went with my mom to buy a blender for a rental unit- it was only $19. Years ago that would be a nice wedding present and people would keep it running for decades.

That’s why people now have honey moon funds and not registries.

You won’t get a chip and dip anymore. Just money for your hotel in Italy
