INTERESTING INFO... Investment Strategy

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.

If only you could actually make that much money back on aluminum cans.
