My parents kept everything. When they passed away I started going through their paperwork and keeping those documents that I thought I would need "later" and others that I kept because they were a "sign of their times". The picture below is from a newspaper in 1964 that my father had kept.
My father was a Colonel in the Air Force with an MBA from Harvard and was making around $1500 per month in the Air Force. Hard to believe considering the kind of money I have made in my 25+ year career in real estate. Even with inflation, I can't begin to believe the cost of items then compared to today!
