Salaries and prices up to 1917 year


1. Workers. The average salary of a worker in Russia was 37.5 rubles. Multiply this amount by 1282,29 (the ratio of the tsarist ruble to the modern) and get the amount of 48085 thousand rubles to the modern conversion.

2. Janitor 18 rubles or 23081 p. on modern money

3. Second Lieutenant Lieutenant 70 p. or 89 760 p. on modern money

4. The town (ordinary police officer) 20, 5 p. or 26 287 p. on modern money

5. Workers (Petersburg). It is interesting that the average salary in St. Petersburg was lower and amounted to 1914 year 22 ruble 53 penny. Multiply this amount by 1282,29 and get 28890 Russian rubles.

6.Kuharka 5 - 8 r. or 6.5.-10 thousand for modern money

7. Elementary school teacher 25 p. or 32050 p. on modern money

8. Gymnasium Teacher 85 or 108970 p. on modern money

9 .. Senior Janitor 40 p. or 51 297 p. on modern money

10..Okolotochny warder (modern analog-part) 50 p. or 64 115 for modern money

11. Paramedic 40 p. or 51280 p.

12. Colonel 325 p. or 416 744 p. on modern money

13. Kollezhsky assessor (middle class official) 62 p. or 79 502 p. on modern money

14. Privy Councilor (official of the highest class) 500 or 641 145 for modern money. The same amount received by the army general

And how much, you ask, then cost products? A pound of meat in 1914 cost 19 kopecks. Russian pound weighed gram 0,40951241. It means that a kilogram, if it were a measure of weight, would have cost 46,39 kopecks - 0,359 gram of gold, that is, in current money, 551 ruble 14 kopecks. Thus, a worker could buy a kilogram of meat for his salary 48,6, if he wanted to, of course.

Wheat flour 0,08 p. (8 kopecks) = 1 pound (0,4 kg)
Figure pound 0,12 p. = 1 pound (0,4 kg)
Biscuit 0,60 p. = 1 pound (0,4 kg)
Milk 0,08 r. = 1 bottle
Tomatoes 0,22 p. = 1 pound
Fish (pike perch) 0,25 p. = 1 pound
Grapes (raisins) 0,16 p. = 1 pound
Apples 0,03 p. = 1 pound

Now let's see how much it cost to rent a house. Rental housing cost in St. Petersburg 25, and in Moscow and Kiev 20 kopecks per square arshin per month. These 20 kopecks make up today 256 rubles, and square arshin - 0,5058 m². That is, the monthly rent of one square meter was worth in 1914, the 506 of today's rubles. Our clerk would rent an apartment of one hundred square arshins in St. Petersburg for 25 rubles a month. But he did not rent such an apartment, but was content with a basement and garret closet, where the area was smaller, and the rental rate was lower. Such an apartment was rented, as a rule, by titular advisers who received a salary at the level of an army captain. The bare salary of a titular adviser was 105 rubles per month (134 thousand 640 rubles) per month. Thus, the 50-meter flat cost him less than a quarter of the salary.

Well, now let's talk about how the recalculation for modern money is made on the example of the clerk (petty official) salary. In rubles, his salary was 37 rubles and 24 and a half pennies. In those years, there was a gold standard, and each ruble contained 17,424 fractions of pure gold, that is, 0,774235 g in terms of metric measures. Therefore, the clerk's salary is equal to 28,836382575 gram of gold. If we divide this weight into the current gold content of the ruble as of 28 in January 2013, we get 47 758 rubles and 89 kopecks. As you can see, the royal ruble is equal today 1282 to modern rubles 29 kopecks.

        I read it and minus it. The article is not entirely true. The average salary of a worker is 37,5 rubles. This is the maximum in the metallurgical industry. The so-called labor aristocracy. And even such salaries were only at the largest factories in Moscow and St. Petersburg. The average salaries in industries ranged from ranging from 8 to 15 rubles. So in my native Ivanovo region, the average salary in textile factories was 9,5-10 rubles.
        Well, the authors should also say that the working day was 10,5 hours.

          The article shows and reflects the truth and realities of life of that time, how would you like not to believe in it. And to this truth there are many confirmations carefully concealed during the times of the USSR.
          With all this, the author cites prices for large cities. Food prices in urban settlements and posadnas were even lower.
          According to official (family) data .... (in the Samara and Penza provinces), for 10 rubles, at the fair you could buy almost a whole cart of various products and goods. And who tried to live with tips for 10 rubles? The survivor's pension in the USSR was 9p - this is a miserable existence with a shortage of products and goods.
          Yes, such a concept as an industry did not exist at that time, and industry was only in its infancy.
          And you should know that in the village the people lived by their own labor and were wealthy, self-sufficient and had 2-3 classes of education (which was not a little at that time). Again, in fact - the peasants, who were hard-working, allowed themselves to buy land plots, build good houses, get rich, open a personal business. Think, for example, "The Cherry Orchard" by A.P. Chekhov.
          And who played the idler and from work, from dawn to dawn, avoided, and they interrupted from tops to crackers (and then they wrote to the Bolsheviks so that they would then take away the good from the neighbor).

    For some reason they don’t write how much the average peasant had the foundation of the Russian Empire, and they write how bad it was for the minority workers made up less than 10% of the nobles, 5% of the population, but for the majority of the population, wages of 30 rubles a month was an unattainable dream. My grandfather told his mother that he hired and, as a result of work, wasn’t enough for boots, and boots cost from 3 to 5 rubles.

      I can try to answer - my great-grandfather, having returned to his native village from the "imperialist" one, all his chest in crosses, but a ONE-LEGED DISABLED - he got married, built a brick house (still standing), started a strong economy and had children. In the 30s, he was convicted under the article "individual peasant" and was convoyed to Siberia with his family. Only his wife and two sons were able to survive the "trip" (one of them is my grandfather, an order bearer - Participant of the Finnish, WWII, military operations in the Far East with Japan)

          There was an excellent education in the USSR, but you were not taught to read. Read PRADED, with "IMPERIALIST", for the loss of a leg (the war was still going on), etc. , in Soviet Russia, at the time of "dispossession", he had 5 children (some are already teenagers), a pregnant wife (because of this she survived - at the stage there was a miscarriage and she was simply thrown off the wagon train into a snowdrift, was able to get to the nearest village, where she was helped) and a strong household.

                Yes, easy. The village of Chapleyevka in the Sumy region. At the entrance to the village there was a "master's house". Before the revolution there lived a landowner, which was there until the 70s, I don't know, but before the collapse of the USSR there was some kind of office. So, in the village at the beginning of the 90s, ALMOST ALL THE HOUSES BALI ARE THE SIZE OF THIS "PANISH HOUSE". Brick, cinder block, under a slate or iron roof. And before the revolution, there was only one normal house for the whole village (and the village was large). My grandmother's father also had a good house. , also under an iron roof, but less than the "landlord". When he was dispossessed and taken to the collective farm cattle, he himself ran her (cattle) to the collective farm "to poke" (to look after). But that was the time then. Practically universal golot in the village. processing could only be done by combining the efforts of all horse owners. It was tough, but right.

        My grandfather, having returned with an imperialist one-armed invalid, also started a strong farm (three mills). In the 30s he was not convicted, joined a collective farm, worked as a manager of not mills. During the Great Patriotic War, one of his sons was in captivity, not in a concentration camp, he worked for the Bauer, after the war he was not convicted (even in the filtration one was less than a week). I, a grandson, being on urgent service, refused to join the ranks of the CPSU, was not convicted, after the army I graduated from the university. I lived to be 50 years old, I just can't figure out what "bloody gebnya" is

      Absolutely agree. The cost of wages is given without taking into account the income of the most massive part of the population - peasants. It should also be taken into account that the peasant analogue of a hired laborer - a laborer could have an income several times less than the owner of the land, and there were always a lot of laborers in Russia under the tsars. If in doubt, read Kuropatkin's "Russian Army".

      I talked to the "middle peasant". He was an interesting grandfather ... In general, he was a peasant in the summer, but in the winter he installed water pipes and heating in Moscow houses! The construction was then carried out exclusively in the summer, because the houses of that building are now where they were not bombed. Well, by the winter it was time to plant communications. Considering that ready-made parts had not yet been invented, all bends, bends, even converging couplings were done on site - the work was still the same.
      Of course, he was not just so advanced himself, there was an artel of strong and skillful peasants in two villages ... And he earned about a hundred rubles a month with such labor. You can see the recount. My grandfather spoke very interestingly about the revolution, how quickly the workers figured out what happened here and how Lev Davidych with the help of some guys, for some reason speaking bad Russian (they all nodded to the Latvian riflemen, but the grandfather only laughed, also told me Latvians) shot, shot, shot ... To my hatched eyes, he said that he was afraid of his own, as he had exceeded 80.

    It would be nice to voice the income figures of agricultural workers, as well as compare the change in the tax burden over a hundred years.
    Currently, the housing and communal services, under the strict guidance of management companies, can even bankrupt the income of a titular adviser. The number of people wishing to be senior janitors still exceeds the need for primary school teachers.
    In addition, we should not forget that the workers were hired for specific work, at the end or suspension of which they were immediately fired.
    Peasants in the winter went to work in cities, and very non-poor nobles could afford to be a guard officer.

      I agree. In a few years they will tell us how great it was now. The middle-ranking official received a lot, he could afford food without any restrictions (for example, just), he lived in a comfortable apartment and gave rent a mere penny.
      it remains only to figure out why a revolution suddenly occurred in the country (where everything is so good and great) (more precisely, 2 per year). This question is somehow not reflected in this post. But in any case I will put "+", it was interesting to read

        If it was suppressed, then it was a riot, and if not, then a revolution took place. Some percent of dissatisfied always exists even in the most prosperous society. This is from the time of tribal relations, but then the dissatisfied separated and built a new settlement.
        Now spiders have to be in the same bank.
        The article also does not talk about the emigration of Russians to America by whole villages, and the post-revolutionary peak was just another wave.

          I agree that there are always dissatisfied people (in any system). However, as it turned out that there were so many of these dissatisfied that the satisfied were killed or fled to the "foreign country"? Agree, it is difficult to prove to a well-fed person that he is terribly hungry and make him fight with the cook. , riots in the navy, as a result, the collapse of the previous system and a social catastrophe (I'm talking about the revolution). Well, the victory of the Bolsheviks in the end. This could not be caused only by propaganda, the soil was needed for this propaganda. Apparently not everything was as happy as written in the article.

        The revolution didn’t come from the fact that they lived poorly BEFORE THE WAR / although the changes were ripe, only the 2nd Nikolashka didn’t want this /, but it’s very bad, in the war.

      This should not be about the guard, since the guard officers never lived on official salaries. As for the army officers, it should be borne in mind that, unlike the Soviet Army, officers of the Imperial Russian Army had to sew uniforms and acquire the necessary equipment at their own expense. And this resulted in a round sum, in addition, the officer was obliged to regularly visit the regimental officer meeting, which also cost money. The status did not allow him to eat in public canteens and ride a tram. So ordinary army officers didn’t at all luxuriate and, even compared to the armies of Western Europe, received even less. So, the officers had more expenses than the corresponding categories of civil servants with all the consequences ...

                    What harassment and injustice are you talking about? The excesses of local officials, so at all times they existed and now there are enough examples. Who was oppressed - peasants (private owners) who worked on the land and fed all of Russia, Europe, Canada and America, so they were free and at their expense kept the food independence of Russia. Industrialists - developing in the early 20th century, industry in Russia is faster than in Europe. The army is the stronghold of the autocracy. Workers - who were built and were interested in working because their wealth was growing? Immigrants - who were given such lifting that under the Bolsheviks this never dreamed of? Intelligentsia - the number and education of which grew from year to year?
                    And the Jews who were excommunicated from power and the possibility of influencing the authorities were oppressed, the lumpen were oppressed, parasites and thieves were oppressed, who were not favorable to their position and who were ready to do anything to change their miserable position. As a result, the Social Revolutionary cells — a party, etc. including Bolshevism, Leninism and other crap.
                    It is worth noting the followers of Bolshevism that not one country in Europe and the world, even the birthplace of Marxism, has not experienced such bloody coups and civil war, clearly planned by puppeteers. As soon as our fools were able to breed on such bullshit. In general, now they push Russia on the same rake for the second time. And again, parasites and Jews are trying to drag Russia into the abyss.

                      "... peasants ... who fed all of Russia, Europe, Canada and America" ​​- that is, Europe, Canada and America could not feed themselves? Why did they not starve to death when the "Bolsheviks destroyed the peasantry" in Russia?
                      Industrialists who supplied money to revolutionaries; workers continuously staged strikes and strikes, and often armed demonstrations; the army and navy, systematically rebelling and eventually overthrowing the king; settlers, according to Kolchak generals, who played a major role in the uprisings against the whites; the intelligentsia, whose NOT to be a revolutionary, was considered bad form - ALL of them, one must think, lived well under the tsarist regime!

                      "... not one country in Europe and the world, even the homeland of Marxism, has not experienced such bloody coups and civil war" - on the contrary, compared to what has been happening in Europe and in the world since the last centuries, there was only a minor scuffle in Russia.

And if we consider the fact that there was a period when the Bolsheviks controlled a very small "island" of the territory of Russia, and everything else was under the "whites" and their allies, then the myth that the Bolsheviks forced people to fight for their interests, it becomes obvious.

                The answer is simple - the party said it is necessary ......
                Any construction in Bolshevik Russia was paid a heavy price - firstly, gold for Western specialists who created factories, factories and new equipment (the old ones were completely destroyed), and secondly, hundreds of thousands of lost lives on every construction site of the century. And how many such construction projects were ....
                Here are some far-fetched fairy tales about raising the spirit of the people and "heroes". And how many hundreds of thousands of volunteers who bought such slogans died on these construction sites and perestroika, in the civil war.

                The Reds did not win, it is impossible to defeat with the help of terror and the destruction of their own people. Do not confuse God's gift with fried eggs.
                There is a limit in everything. Someone had to stop exterminating each other. And always the smartest and noblest is to blame (this is not about the Bolsheviks). After all, the white officers had enough intelligence and nobility to release the captured "red" fighters (and they were released in hundreds and thousands, though until the second time) to plow the land home, and not destroy the souls of innocent people. Whites were smart enough not to shoot children and women, destroy factories and burn crops ..... Why, yes, because they lived in their own country and it was their people and the people needed something to eat.
                What is not at all possible to say about the red bandits who carefully exterminated millions and do not think about the fact that nobles, intellectuals, manufacturers, doctors, scientists, the so-called kulaks, ordinary dissenting peasants, sailors and all their families are people and the best people of Russia. Destroyed all those who did not agree with party politics. That there would be no doubt that the party is not right.
                And further, collectivization, grandiose construction projects, Stalinism with its camps ..... and again the destruction of those who disagree and doubters.

                      An excerpt from Gulya’s book describes the start time of the Ice Campaign in February 1918. The officers are still alive, almost no one is touching them, in Russia the majority do not even know who the Bolsheviks are, and they (officers) are already burning with irreconcilable hatred towards them. Question - for what? After all, Leyba also did not write or say the words quoted by you. Without whitewashing the Bolsheviks, I want to say: At the goldsmiths, the stigma in the cannon is no less, but count more.

            Well, let's say there weren't millions of volunteers - in the first place. There was a violent approach to the mobilization of the Bolshevik army - either to serve, or the whole family to the wall - this is secondly. But millions of refuseniks to serve in the "red-bellied", hundreds of thousands of "Red Army men" and "red sailors" (who rebelled against the policies and actions of the Bolshevik government, when the unrighteous methods of the rulers were discovered) in the first year of the Bolshevik government - this is the third. Terror, intimidation, shooting without trial by entire villages and small towns - this is the fourth. Land - to peasants (which they never received, factories to workers (nothing left of factories) - brainwashing similar to the current approach at the swamp, riding school, etc. - in the fifth. You can list - in the sixth, in the seventh, etc. ...
            Some Western leaders needed to destroy Russia, as a strong and great power, and there were those who sold out and who worked off the money. And there are enough "brainless" puppets at all times.

                        Maybe you tell us that in the 91st there was a majority. I want to upset you - and then in the 91st the majority simply wanted a quiet life and did not intervene, for which they paid.

                        You wrote correctly - relative: Films "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears", etc. , "Come tomorrow" - the protagonist has a house. An acquaintance of mine, the son of the collective farm chairman, said that they stopped going to clean the house and just work for food in the 40s

                        I hope you do not think that it is possible to create absolute social equality? But you can strive for this. And in the USSR, in my opinion, this equality was much greater.
                        Who helped and why ??? In Libya, the "people" also helped to understand something, although they lived in my opinion better than in Europe and the United States.

                        Surely I don’t know this and I won’t say it, but the fact is that in the end it turned out to be one of the greatest countries in history.

                        Look at least the number of armies (I already wrote below).
                        The whole difference is that in the 91st people were full and satisfied with their lives. When a person has something to lose, he will sit at home and look from the side. But apparently then there was already nothing to lose on one side, and the other, on the contrary, could lose everything. This also resulted in a massacre.

                        It was just the rulers and the top who brought it, and someone seized the moment and the storm went. After all, someone always wants to be in power, and the task of the current government is to prevent this.
                        I think that fools in power, of which we had plenty, brought the country, and again, some took advantage of the moment ...

              Yes. fact millions of ruined lives as a result of a civil war not unleashed by the Reds. They were actually a defending party.
              By the way, the Kronstadt sailors are precisely those who shot officers in February 17 (which the Bolsheviks had nothing to do with) and who regularly organized riots. One of the series of which was the Krondstadsky rebellion.
              The Tambov rebellion is a continuation of riots. which began to appear on a massive scale there since the end of the year 16. Good rebels were led by professional cannibals and bandits, deserters of all stripes ... or some kind of hoe of that time. as Comrade Goblin put it, good peasants with bestial cruelty destroyed those unkind Tambov peasants who dared to support the Reds ... it's just the apotheosis of banditry ....

                First, I already wrote-chaos!
                2) Not everything is clear - bandits and deserters of all stripes were on both sides (and among the "commissars" too)
                3) In Tambov province (the territory of modern Tambov, Lipetsk, parts of Voronezh and Penza regions), Raskulachivans were carried out with incredible scope and cruelty - sometimes whole villages exterminated (in their place potatoes are now planted)
                4) The wave of dispossession for a long time could not be stopped from above.

                  Otherwise, there was a civil war in the country, in large cities people were dying of hunger. The fists did not deliver food in the throat. This forced the restoration of the surplus appropriation adopted under the tsar. armed resistance arose, led by absolute cannibals such as hoes and various figures frenzied with blood, who simply slaughtered supporters of the Government. It was necessary not to touch the sacred private property - and let millions of people die in large cities. the remnants of industry will die, just not to touch the gangs of various chieftains? Antonovtsy themselves in the blood of fellow villagers to the ears ... Naturally. after the suppression of the rebellion there continued the persecution of its participants, who were not at all lambs ... naturally, while a crowd of innocents suffered, just like that. as well as at the hands of Antonovites and white knights ... but this is a civil war, and pouring mud on yourself because the Power saved millions of people from starvation, and the state itself, having dealt with gangster freedoms, I would not ...
                  and what they couldn’t stop from above, it’s understandable, at first the Antonov bandits ruled there, spilling a sea of ​​blood from the villagers and not only, then those who they slaughtered, also not suffering from humanism, came upstairs and the vendetta began for families, for friends , for taking away .... I repeat, this is a civil war, what do you want ....

                    Dekulakization began in the 30s, hundreds of thousands of peasants became its victims only officially; almost any peasant could get into the lists of kulaks compiled locally. In the localities, the middle peasants and "low-power peasants" were often dispossessed to ensure the accelerated rates of dispossession. The decision to end the dispossession of kulaks was made in the 32nd, but continued for a long time on the "initiative from below" (a neighbor, desirous of taking possession of your property, simply wrote a denunciation on you, saying that he was a fist and a concealer)
                    I repeat - not everything is clear and the country got out of this chaos for a long time, without gaining anything positive but the desire of people to rally around the idea, but with whose supply this chaos arose is an open question !!!

                      You rightly faked me here. :))) I admit, I thought you were mistaken and started talking about the seizure of food, livestock from peasants, and in some places and other property to create communes, it was just about the Tambov uprising. I did not cling, I did not think that you want to divert the discussion to the side ... :)))
                      there were over 85 percent of peasants in the country. There is no industry. Education is only being restored. There are not enough workers to support the ongoing activities of a miserable industry, not that before the industrial breakthrough that saved us in the Second World War. Question. where to get hands from? And on the nose of the war, we have a super-hostile environment, Entente enemies, Japan, the strongest countries on the planet that do not hide their aggressive intentions. On all borders without exception, there are regular clashes with the dispatched DRGs and entire detachments ..... What should I do?
                      The only way out is to transfer agriculture to collective ones, to increase the effectiveness of introducing the use of technology there (it is more difficult with individual students). and use your vacant hands for Industrialization.
                      Naturally, this caused some resistance, including armed ... do not forget about that. that the Civil War ended relatively recently ... what. all convinced enemies at once became good citizens? Also, do not forget that at that time, due to the fact that there was no other choice, everything was done-to break, at all costs, by people fierce over the long war ... mentalities .... and this is the result .... by the way, then that acted on the gap, as it turned out, was absolutely justified ... although this is not a bright streak of our history .... what can you do.

I will remind you that it was unsuccessful before the 17th attempt (in 1905), let me remind you that riots of the peasants were under the tsar (Stolypin suppressed).

              From the work May Day of the Revolutionary Proletariat (1913) by V. I. Lenin (1870-1924): “For the revolution, it is not enough that the lower classes do not want to live as before. It also requires that the tops cannot manage and manage, as before. ”

The Russian tsar and the emperor of the Germans were relatives, moreover, they maintained good relations. And for the French they entered the war for many reasons (for example, RI owed France money) if the emperor of Russia had not gotten into debt with his policy, then RI would have had every chance of maintaining neutrality, and could even have sided with the Germans, but debt obligations left no choice.

To complete the picture, it was worth showing the wages and prices of the Soviet period, until 1991, although inflation since the end of the 80s was frantic. sources differ, and you need to start from the cost of a certain product, not from the "big mac index" of course.

    The trick with urban earnings is easy to explain. Russian grain, bought super cheaply from the manufacturer, was returned to Russia in the form of flour produced in German electrified mills. The grain lobby, or rather the mafia, which consisted of the royal family, government officials, bankers, merchants, landowners, needed at least some kind of public support. Therefore, 10 - 15% of the population - city dwellers, users of the Golden Ruble actually bribed. The village was offered a 37 year old. life span. All this grace was based on foreign loans. Ext. debt for 14 years - 4,5 billion gold rubles. Hence the irresponsible urge to conquer Constantinople and the loss of sovereignty. The elite was not interested in the development of the country. If grain is replaced by hydrocarbons, then it is similar to today. And further. Not everything is measured in money. President of the Russian Federation Boris Yeltsin 01. 02.1931 was born in the "RODDOM" of the village of Budka, Ural region. Was there a maternity hospital in Booth in 1913?

      In 1903, there were 30000 mills in Russia, of which 1850 were steam mills (industrial production). The range of flour was varied 8-10 varieties. In Europe at that time 3-4 grades. The quality was excellent. My fellow countrymen of Nizhny Novgorod for the quality of flour received gold medals at the Nizhny Novgorod Fair. They began to enter foreign markets: 1904 World Exhibition in Vienna - Big Gold Medal; 1905 World Exhibition in Paris - Big Medal; 1906 World Exhibition in London - Grand Prix. These are the pies (well, that is, flour).

    A very stupid way to determine the ratio of tsarist to modern rubles through the exchange rate of gold.
    The price of gold, prices relative to gold are changing all the time. Especially after 100 years.
    The ratio of money is determined by the ratio of prices.
    Example: No one will argue that wheat flour is the most important product, and the price determines it accordingly.
    Wheat flour 0,08 p. (8 kopecks) = 1 pound (0,4 kg)
    That is, 1 kg of flour cost 20 kopecks.
    I don’t know where, but in our store 2 kg a bag of wheat flour costs 50 rubles.
    That is 25 rubles per 1 kg.
    Now compare.
    It turns out 1 ruble of the empire is equal to 125 modern rubles.
    And we are rubbed here about 1200-odd rubles.smile
    It’s clear that you need to compare across a large group of goods. But still, the ratio will not work in any way even close to 1000 rubles.

    Information for thought.

    "At present, numismatists are increasingly interested in the cost of the royal ruble. In fact, it is quite difficult to find out the exact value, since it can vary depending on the current exchange rate. However, you can calculate the approximate price.

    To find out the price for the royal ruble, you need to choose the correct calculation method. For example, a comparison based on the gold content of the royal ruble is popular today. But modern currencies have had no connection with gold since the 1970s. It has long become an ordinary commodity, and its price is determined mainly by speculative factors, which is why when using this method, too high values ​​are obtained. The calculation of the cost of the royal ruble should begin with determining the dollar exchange rate at that time. For example, in 1913 it was 1 ruble 94,5 kopecks, that is, the ruble was equal to 0,514 dollars. Taking into account the above difference in prices, it is easy to guess that at that time one ruble could buy the same amount of goods as 1 and more dollars. At present, the average annual price level in the country is more than 1,36 times higher than in 1913. And if we take into account the current inflation, then at the end of 20 - beginning of 2012 the cost of the tsarist ruble of 2013 is 1913 - 510 rubles. The latter estimate is based on a comparison of food prices in the United States and Russia during tsarist times. But even if we make a general comparison of prices in our country in 585 and 1913, we get a value equal to about 2012 rubles. The difference with the previously obtained number is less than 627%, which confirms the accuracy and reliability of the calculations. Further, you can take the arithmetic mean between the available estimates at the dollar exchange rate and get the exact value of the coin at the moment.Thus, 10 royal ruble of the 1 sample at the beginning of 1913 can be estimated at about 2013 modern rubles, speaking of the consumer basket as a whole. If we talk only about the food basket, then the value of the coin will be approximately 550 rubles, taking into account the ratio of food prices in the US and in Russia in 610 and now, as well as the inflation rate.

      The pay of an officer with the rank of "ensign" (now "junior lieutenant"):

      Basic salary (per year), type "B" (for all other regiments):
      - 300 rub. (main)
      - 294 rub. (net of 2,5% for hospitals and doctors)
      - 276 rub. (6% more to the emit cashier)

      OR

      Reinforced salary (per year) (type "B" (for all other regiments)) (Transcaucasia, Black Sea, Amur, Primorsk, Sukhum Tersk regions, Dagestan, Kuban, Turkestan, Chinese border; students of academies; accompanying members of the royal family abroad) :
      - 450 rub. (main)
      - 441 rub. (net of 2,5% for hospitals and doctors)
      - 414 rub. (6% more to the emit cashier)

      + Additional content:
      - for those who do not receive table money - 12-216 rub. per year (depending on the area)
      - additionally paid in the remote regions of Eastern Siberia - 60-120 rub. per year (depending on the area)
      - on special provisions

      + Table money (Transcaucasia, the Black Sea, Amur, Primorsky, Sukhum Terek regions, Dagestan, Kuban, Turkestan, the Chinese border) - 144-240 rubles per year.

      Partion (per diem for meals in dresses, guards) - 60 cop. per day - 3 rub. per year (depending on the area.)

      + A separate monetary allowance is put on the horse.

      We make simple calculations:

      TOTAL minimum - 35 rubles per month
      TOTAL maximum - 67,5 rub. per month

      For current money:

      from 19250 to 37125 rub. per month.


      The calculation is given when the ratio of 1 ruble 1913 g. To Russian ruble 2012 g. Equal to 1: 550.

      So, the author’s calculations, to put it mildly, are not true.

      And, accordingly, the article - "-".

    Yes, most people (judging by the comments) have weak analytical skills. Russia 75% of the rural population (and about the same percentage of illiterates).

    And of course, more or less skilled workers, artisans could live well (though it was especially problematic to get out higher).

    Now think about how to hunch back to raise a bull, a cow or other animals, and then to give for a penny.

    At the same time, up to 40% of peasant recruits in their life tried meat only in the army.

    I understand that most members of the forum are descendants of nobles and lawyers (well, then it’s clear).

Of course, industrialization, literacy and all that, but also brutality, degradation of the Russian people - all this legacy of the 20th century

        Against the Gulag, you said that correctly. Perhaps that is why they were the first to organize a concentration camp on Solovki. And he already departed to the Gulag much later. Check out the following quote:
        "According to incomplete estimates of researchers of the civil war in the North, about 52000 people passed through prisons, concentration camps and hard labor, that is, up to 11% of the total population. According to official data from the authorities, about 4000 people were executed by military courts." (Golub P. "White" terror in the North of Russia).

          You can not recall the Red Terror, the White (although incomparable things). The thing is in the very principle of SOCIALISM - a person is a unit in the accounting report (option-production unit, combat, camp). If you drive a certain number of peasants into camps, then the remaining will have enough land to feed and still feed the party apparatus. The most intelligent Leninists (the first secretaries of the regional committee of the district committees immediately realized this and now oligarchs and bankers) know this truth well. And do not waste time in vain - forge money. Some truth did not understand that their time had passed and continued to greyhound. But now in prisons (like Khodorkovsky), and after all there were RESERVES of the party. And to hell with them ... But what is so clear for today's Leninists is that it is not clear.

            And you can compare. Including a comparison is in the book of Golub, which I quoted. But liberals are more easily compared to a liberal wiki. You can compare with her.

            http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Красный_террор

            According to Robert Conquest, total judgments of the Revolutionary Tribunals and extra-judicial meetings of the Cheka in 1917-1922. 140 thousand people were shot.

            The researcher of the history of the Cheka, O. B. Mozokhin, based on archival data, criticized this figure. According to him, “With all the reservations and exaggerations, the number of victims of the Cheka’s organs can be estimated at no more than 50 thousand people”. Also, based on a study of the minutes of meetings of the Extraordinary Commissions, he noted that sentences of capital punishment were the exception rather than the rule, with the majority of those executed being executed for ordinary crimes


            Those. the total number of victims of red terror is calculated in numbers from 50 to 140 thousand people

            Now consider the results of the White Terror - http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Terror_(Russia)

            According to V.V. Erlikhman (liberal historian, by the way) from the "white terror" about 300 thousand people died. This number includes victims of extrajudicial killings of the white forces and governments (approximately 111 thousand people), as well as the victims of foreign invaders and interventionists and the victims of national border regimes that arose as a result of the collapse of the Russian Empire

            So compare from 50 to 140 thousand red terror and more than 300 thousand white

    These liberals (Solzhenitsyn, Svanidze and others) did not know how to count, and hundreds of millions of losses were attributed to the Communists.

    Why 60 million? because the countries of the USSR over the years have lost 14 million people. But in the USSR, the growth over 10 years was 23-25 ​​million. Do you want to continue to count, or will you guess?

    For example, Ukraine (and where so half-polishly so contemptuously?) 45 million people. It was 52, an increase every 10 years for 2 million. with hook (these are the times when, according to the stories of the liberals, gebna ate eating babies) it should be 56.4 million. Determine the difference yourself. Ukraine was 1/6 of the Union in terms of population, without wars — you can take it as an average.

      If only, if only ... Demography and without wars is a terrible thing, and the logic of simple multiplications and subtractions does not work. Mendeleev at the beginning of the century believed that there should be 500 million Russians in a certain number of years and where are they ??? there was a man. Elementary and consequently erroneous logic is one of the punishments of Leninist-minded people. Here Stalin managed to somehow resist sliding into primitivism, but for some reason the Communists follow his example a little. Of course, he answered for krovushka, but more on that another time. Further ... Polupolsha. When the state people had a lighter head, Little Russia was correctly called Little Russia, and the language of the local subethnos was considered semi-Polish. The Marxist-Leninist Khrushchov (and before him there were other party members) laid the foundation stone for the pseudo-state - "Ukraine". Further; a lot of technologies in the T-50 were mastered at the turn of 2000-2006 and the legacy of the USSR cannot be. Next: again about birthmarks. Do you know what it is? This is evidence of the crimes of their ancestors (Gorbachev's example is the clearest illustration). So this sad chain will continue - from father to son, and so on ... For example, up to 7 tribes are responsible for the murder of a priest.

        Demshiza does not understand that without those whom she calls slaves and scoops (yes, vilely deceived by this demshiza), this schiza cost nothing then. What she stands when the husk of lies has crumbled, we clearly observe.

        THE MAIN THING!

    The logic of large numbers always works.

    Leave Mendeleev alone (12 children in the family), he was never a demographer. He, and as a chemist, made a mistake in the forecasts (oil and bank notes). And he made a mistake of only 70-80 million.

    Demographic losses for 1918–1959 -70 million, of which the domestic war -36-37 million. And of the remaining 33 million, only 7-8 repressions (including the Holodomor).

      The mistake of the great scientist, you are right, but the mistake, out of ignorance, he extrapolated the number of children in a peasant family for the entire specified period of 100 years, without taking into account and awareness, during urbanization, industrialization of society. Inevitably, in the second generation the number of children is reduced, to level 2-3, then even more. And just this happened.
      With all this, there is no harm to Mendeleev’s authority, he still hurt his soul for Russia, and these compilers of other people's thoughts, singers of Western ideological trash, Russia obviously do not want prosperity in any form.
