Title: 401 keg plan
Post by: 007Rusty on February 27, 2008, 10:14:48 PM

Investment plan  for 2008
 

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 $1000.00.
 
With WorldCom, you would have had less  than $5.00 left.
 
If you had purchased $1000 of Delta Air Lines stock you  would have $49.00
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, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily
and  recycle.
 
It's called the 401-Keg Plan.  :aok

I have 5 years worth of beer and coke cans saved up. Can I retire? (pun intended)

Rusty,
That is misleading.  Aluminum was a $1.39 a pound today.  In states that do not charge you extra for a can or bottle deposit, you would have far less than the others you are quoting...

Bodhi, if you drank heavily enough, you would not notice that.
