The well offs are at it again....

Post by MarkCDodd »

Aussies don't mind people making money and spending it.

But when beach boxes like this one sell for $440,000 (That is over £290,000) you have to wonder about fools and their money.

They simply stop the "inconvenience" of the family having to lug all their swim gear across the road from the parking bay to the beach.

One close to it went for $580,000 a while ago.

They must have a different idea of what constitutes value for money.

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

They are the same over here , beach huts in Brighton are going for incredable amounts of money. Shepherd Huts are being built for well over £5.000 00,and originals go for alot more. Its the same for 1960's caravans ,they are being done out in shabby chic style. This is what my daughter does for 1960's caravans,she has one at the moment she is doing up but guess who has got to make the curtains 8)
It's easy to stand with the crowd . It takes courage to stand alone
