(5x salary)&lt;br /&gt;There were no Protons or APs at the time. Foreign cars were dirt cheap.&lt;br /&gt;A loaf of bread was MYR0.60. (can buy 2500 with 1x salary)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Now&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Somewhere in 2007, I bought another house (2-storey semi-D) as investment MYR330,000 outside of KL.&lt;br /&gt;My son&amp;#39;s (not me) starting pay was MYR2,400.&lt;br /&gt;Monthly installment for the house is MYR1,800.  (75% of his salary)&lt;br /&gt;Interest rate was low at 4-5% p.a. (so much cheaper to lend now as compared to 11.5%)&lt;br /&gt;His pay did not double in 3 years. But is now MYR3,000.&lt;br /&gt;A Kancil/Viva was MYR25,000. (8x salary, note that old Mini Miners are still driven till today)&lt;br /&gt;A loaf of bread was about MYR2.40. (can only buy 1250x with 1x salary)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER BEGIN--&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;spoilertop&quot; onClick=&quot;openClose('f2764f895a8832c3a8a2b55fd87fd3f4')&quot; style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;&amp;raquo; Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... &amp;laquo;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;spoilermain&quot; id=&quot;f2764f895a8832c3a8a2b55fd87fd3f4&quot; style=&quot;display:none&quot;&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER END--&gt;Theoretically, the ratios calculated in the brackets should maintain.&lt;br /&gt;Malaysia&amp;#39;s not like that.
