Reading this thread seriously made us envy how fellow finance people built up their portfolio having such high nett worth! Perhaps those times are over, not?
if you are leaning towards property investment, you can buy REITs instead of owning a physical property... or you can spread your investments to exchange traded funds (ETFs) or other blue-chips, local / overseas stocks... depending on your risk appetite...

a physical (private) property investment is too illiquid and uncertain... we no longer live in an era like my uncle who used to buy his landed @ $500k, now worth 3-4m...

today if you were buy a $1m condo (freehold or not)... in 20 years time i honestly don't think it'll shoot up to $5-6m.
