If you had bought $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year
ago, it would now be worth $49.00.
With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original
$1,000.00.
With Worldcom, you would have less than $5.00 left.
On the other hand, if you had bought $1,000.00 worth
of Budweiser (the beer, not the stock) one year ago,
drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the
deposit, you would have $214.00.(10 cents refund per
can in Michigan)
Based on the above, my current investment advice
is to drink heavily and then recycle.
This is my new retirement program, I call it my
"401 Keg" Program. :cool:
