Well, when I was that age, minimum wage was $3.35 an hour and us teens competed for any job that came open. At the same time the local farmers, who didn’t have two nickels to rub together, were paying five to six dollars an hour for tobacco work. And they didn’t always get enough workers to finish the field. So, I guess I realized the market was telling me something and it kind of pointed me in the right direction.
