Here's a nice snapshot of what inflation is using what the President's salary was compared to today and equating to today's dollars:


Date established Salary Salary in 2008 dollars
September 24, 1789 $25,000 = $566,000 Today
March 3, 1873 $50,000 = $865,000 Today
March 4, 1909 $75,000 = $1,714,000 Today
January 19, 1949 $100,000 = $875,000 Today
January 20, 1969 $200,000 = $1,135,000 Today
January 20, 2001 $400,000 = $471,000 Today
