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.
