Just trying to understand... Doesn't this presume that you're bringing in those "2023 dollars" easier than you were in 2013?

Yes, as in say you get paid 50k a year in 2013, you're now getting paid 70k for the same job in 2023. Thats a 40% increase in the NOMINAL wage you make but assuming that your raises kept pace with inflation it would be technically a 0% REAL wage increase because that 50k and your now 70k have the same "purchasing power". 

Did that answer your question or did I misinterpret what you said?
