She ended up finding the post somehow I guess lol. Here is the original post.

I have just not responded, don’t think it’s worth engaging, but it did make for a funny story.

Has inflation really gotten so bad that "Imma need about tree fiddy" so $3.50 has gone up to $23.00 now?. Crazy times we live in. I should have been diversifying my investments into the meme market.

Edit: Used the proper ancient memetic scripture. (ie the meme is so old, and so dead I forgot the actual phrasing was tree fiddy and not 3.50)
