Investment Advice

RETIREMENT PLAN INVESTING FOR YOUR RETIREMENT:
If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.
With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of Beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recyclingREFUND, you would have had $214.00.
Based on the above, current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
Since beer is kind of out of the question, you could substitute soda (in cans).

You could get a lot more soda for $1000 than for beer, too.

All though that gives me an idea. You could keep the $1000, and just spend your days collecting can for recycling. 3 million hobos can't be wrong.

We went and saw Dick and Jane tonight. There were lots of references to those companies. Funny movie. We enjoyed it.

Yeah, but the closest thing to a vehicle a hobo has is a shopping cart.........
