Monster Commute RPG
Here's some work on the initial Monster Commute RPG price list, that I've been working on for some weeks.
Yeah, it's epic, but I like a good (world expanding) price lists. It's one of my nerdy pleasures. I realize that it probably creates more questions than it answers, but use your imagination.
<>
I also include some bits about the economy, which were based on real 1918 data that I've been digging up.
Please comment and let me know what I forgot.
Please remember that this is a: WORK IN PROGRESS
If you're working on a steampunk price list, please don't steal mine. This has been some epic work, I'll tell you.

Monstru Price List
A variety of items available in shops, stores and the Blacktop Market.
Actual 1918 Salaries, for reference
Stable Sweeper - $1600
Newspaper delivery - $1750
Driver, Truck - $1560
Riding teacher - $1800
Bootblack - $2000
Waiter - $2300 + tips

Average salary ranges for employed Authority Employees, per month
Superb Annual Salary: $8000, or $667 per month
Great Annual Salary: $4000, or $334 per month
Good Annual salary: $2000, or $167 per month
Fair Annual salary: $1000, or $84 per month <-- Baseline
Poor: Annual salary: $500, or $42 per month
Terrible Annual salary: $250, or $21 per month
The difficult here is simply finding work. Jobs are simply next to impossible to find, though they can be found from time to time. Salaries are exceptionally rare, and are presented here to help understand the economy of Monstru. I don't expect Character's to seek out employment... they deserve ADVENTURE not office work!
Most folks receive standard unemployment benefits: $300 CrowBucks per year, or $25 per month (Including PCs). As long as the monster isn't breaking the law or is on one of the endless Spy Scouts watch lists, one can expect a check every month or so.
