Well, I was wondering the same thing myself after watching an episode of Mad Men and learning the lead character Don Draper earned $30,000 a year. So I just checked how much 30,000 dollars would be in 2010 money (adjusted for inflation) and was given the figure $218,000.

But I imagine the rate of inflation for a high paying executive job is higher, considering the wealth gap between the middle class and the rich has widened greatly since 1960.
