Beer Investment
This is old but with the stock market tanking...
If you had purchased $1000 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.

With Enron, you would have $16.50 left of the original $1000.

With WorldCom, you would have less than $5 left.
f you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock you would have $49 left.

If you had purchased United Airlines, you would have nothing left.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling refund you would have $214.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

This is called the 401-Keg Plan.
