Doug Smith is on his deathbed and knows the end is near. His nurse, his wife, his daughter and two sons are with him.
So, he says to them:
"Bernie, I want you to take the Hamilton houses."
"Sybil, you take the apartments over in the Bulimba."
"Jamie, I want you to take the offices over in the City Centre."
"Sarah, my dear wife, please take all the residential buildings on the banks of the Brisbane river."
The nurse is just blown away by all this, and as Doug slips away, she says, "Mrs. Smith, your husband must have been such a hard-working man to have accumulated all this property".
Sarah replies, "Property? .... he had a paper run!"
