Currency converter?

For example if I had $3000 in 1955, what would that value be now? Is there some sort of guide/converter to figure out how much something is from the past to it's value now?

Investment... interest rate? Or just wanting to see the effects of inflation on raw money?

Effects of inflation on raw money....

Just find the average inflation rate over the years and use that to find the future value. Should be close enough for your purposes. You could use excel, fv=()

What cost $3000 in 1955 would cost $20611.25 in 2005.

Also, if you were to buy exactly the same products in 2005 and 1955,
they would cost you $3000 and $436.65 respectively.

per Inflation Calculator
