Homer was fictitious and besides, he was animated by Koreans who put random numbers there because they didn't anticipate the invention of DVR and didn't know people would one day be able to go frame by frame in high enough definition to make out text

He scammed grandpa Simpson out of his house and moved Marge and the kids in. And considering he's paid weekly, $18k net pay isn't crazy considering the purchasing power of that today is $40k

my parents bought a 4000 square foot home in a nice downtown area with 5 beds, 4 baths in their mid 20s when they started having kids. My dad was a fire fighter and then police officer. my mom was a school teacher and then librarian. That's just how it in boomer glory days, an honest 40 hours of work let you live a very nice upper middle class life with no worries about money. Then the house was 90k and they made 30 combined. Now it's 2.5 million and a school teacher and fire fighter make 100k combined.

its criminal how fucked the US economy has gotten.

Uhhhhh hate to burst y'alls bubble, but The Simpsons have predicted real life scenarios multiple times. It's safe to say The Simpsons is actually a show based on real life.
