A small investment tip

Mercedes · 15th March 2007, 08:23 AM

Some tips for retirement planning from an expert in the industry:

If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock three years ago, it
would be worth $49.00.
With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1000.00.
But if over the last three years you had purchased $1000.00 worth of
beer, drank all the beer, then returned the cans or bottles for your
refund you would have $61.40.

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

Sweet, so $1000 worth of drinking beer and recycling pays for 6 months of UO who'd have figured?
