A colleague of mine has found an affordable house across from our place. Last weekend, he had the key and he and his wife were starting to have a real good look around to see what they needed to do. The house is really cheap for Yangon standards but it meant that some repair work was in order.
Anyway, he is standing outside in the garden (yes, it even has a garden!) when the owner of next door's plot comes up to him. That owner told him that his plot was for sale for a mere 10 million dollars.
My colleague was still in shock half an hour later when I came back from the errand I'd been on.
Hubby told me that, contrary to what we thought, it didn't even include the whole plot and buildings there but that the land that was for sale was only a third of what we thought it was! Talking about ridiculous prices. For 10 million dollars I'd buy me a nice property somewhere in Europe like a nice chateau or a lovely mansion. I wouldn't spend it on a tiny plot of land in a small street in Yangon.

Well, I've heard the phrase "dare to dream," but 10 million dollars is one big dream! I'm guessing that property's probably going to be on the market for a while. ;-)
