Guy puts all his money into stock market, and then has himself cryogeic
frozen for 100 years. As they bring him back to life, he goes out to see the
country changed a lot. Finds a phone, which is totally different design.
Calls his stock broker, and identifies himself. What's his account worth?
Three million dollars. He's jumping for joy until... wait for it.....

the operator comes on the line and says.... "for the next three minutes,
please insert one million dollars."

"Would you pay C$28 (US$27; £18) for a cabbage? $65 for a bag of
chicken? $100 for 12 litres of water? That's not the cost of a meal at
a world-class restaurant, but the price of basic foodstuffs at
supermarkets in the territory of Nunavut, in northern Canada."

Same applies to remote villages in Alaska.

People salivate at the high wages paid in Alaska not realizing that
the cost of living pretty much negates it
