"but certainly I don't feel I have 100x in buying power"
Sometimes the economics do conveniently work out this way, which is why some people might get confused. For example I lived in Poland for a few years, and at the time a dollar got you about three zloty, and for the majority of day-to-day stuff you did indeed have about 3x the buying power. Of course for things like computers you ironically had about 1/3 the buying power.
