I remember my dad used to laugh at his friends buying shitty houses near Boston for like 150-300k back in the days, now all those people are millionaires. Shit even bad neighborhoods around Boston are very expensive, close to a million bucks for some trashed rental 2-3 family. Its amazing how all the poor people who own those properties all of a sudden got rich out of nothing.

I remember back in the 70's my Dad packed us in the station wagon to drive down to World's End by Hingham because he saw in the paper there was a house for sale there for $100k and he had to see what a $100k house looked like. It was a large, brick colonial on the water. Nice house with a dock and the whole nine yards. I'm sure that same house today would go for several million at least.
