Lol how funny is that. Some interesting stats for you from Japan during its asset bubble heyday which you may / may not be aware of:
1. "At the height of the bubble, "it was a matter of pride that the land around the Imperial Palace in Tokyo was at one point worth more than California", the Financial Times said."
2. "Prices were highest in Tokyo's Ginza district in 1989, with some fetching over US$1.5 million per square meter ($139,000 per square foot), and only slightly less in other areas of Tokyo"
