A million bucks? I could buy a thousand acres up in Far North Queensland and build a fully self-sufficient home right in the middle of it and still have change to buy a ute and a boat and throw a party. LOLZ!

I knew a Systems Engineer in the late 70s (these guys were rare and earned 700 bucks a day back then) who had his home base in Pattaya. He didn't say too much but yeah, big house, lots of staff, an international model for a wife. You know, normal stuff.

@barath4545 Mate, I'd go outside to the barbecue to eat, keep plenty of beer in the cold room and invite mad friends to come socialise at the block. I don't mind the city but I need a bit of country to keep my head sane.

@shagged-kf7nj Just sayin, they were a big influence on me as a kid. But Jack Absalom was an even bigger influence.

@julzhunt7790 Julz, my parents bought a 1/4 acre house and land package at Glengarry estate (Duncraig) in 1969/1970 for $35000. Back then most of the surrounding area was bushland. No freeway. No shopping centres. I saw a mob of roos in the bush between Glengarry and Sorrento that numbered in the hundreds. Anyway, we went back to Brissie in about 1975 and the house sold for $120000. A few years back I heard that you couldn't buy a house in the neighbourhood for under a million. If you're curious, it was 7 Carlyle Crescent, Duncraig. We lived in Wembley Downs for a while before the house was finished.
