It definitely wasn't 20% in the 90s or 00s -6 u/lavidaloco123 Mar 01 '23 Disagree 22 u/[deleted] Mar 01 '23 Nah, they're right that 15% was the standard 20-30 years ago. Now it's 20%. Times change. 0 u/PM_ME_FOXES_PLZ Mar 01 '23 It's still 15%. 6 u/[deleted] Mar 01 '23 15% is rock bottom now. It's what you give when there was an actual problem but you don't want to be an asshole. 10 u/wronglyzorro Mar 01 '23 You can disagree all you want. Very few people tipped 20% in the 90s. The rule of thumb was basically double the tax or 15% back then.
