So, if you are feeling hungry you can just go a gnaw on a piece of that third bedroom in your ancient home which has gone up in $ value, dramatically in Melbourne through no fault of your own. Same house, no major improvements, indeed rather shabby these days. You just happen to have owned that home since 1960. Close to kids who live in nearby suburbs. So, you need to sell up the family home after 58 years ownership because Radicool wants it in the "asset" test? Fraught with unfairness..... Bring in death duties I say, but forcing elderly people to sell their family homes is heartless.
