Subject: Investing in 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 recycling REFUND,
you would have had $214.00.

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

It's called the 401-Keg Plan

  2. Nortel, Enron and WorldCom have certainly had their impact on corporate America. And, I think that the barely and hops brewing industry has had theirs as well.

    Other investments may prove to have higher returns.
