<prompt> Human: I live in Australia, Sydney to be exact.Median house prices are at about 1,068,000 in our city. Over the last year or so certain suburbs have seen selling prices 50 above asking. 1 mil houses selling for 2 mil. Suburbs which, have nothing particularly special about them - not close to the city, decent public transport, average square feet in size etc etc, selling for 2 mil.In order for me to save 1 million dollars, at my current savings of 1000 a fortnight, 2000 a month, 24,000 a year, it would take 41 YEARS. WHAT??Man, 1 million wouldnt even get me a 2 story house 20km from the city. Lets say I save 4000 a month. 21 years to a million. Im already 27. I need to double my NET income in order to save double what I am now.. so I can buy a million dollar home in cash when im 47?Someone.. please... pm me the winning lottery numbers.  <response>: People arent buying million dollar homes in cash tho, not sure why youre thinking of it that way. They pay a down payment and then pay it off over years.
