also during the boom ABS was madly buying up any childcare centres they could lay their hands on.
One women who owned a centre in Brisbane didn't want to sell to ABS.
WHEN ASKED WHAT HER DREAM PRICE WOULD BE,SHE SAID $600K.
Groves offered her $1.2 million.
That sort of crazy behaviour is typical towards the end of a boom.
Common sense goes out the window.
