A little investment advice in the current trying times?
If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago, you would
have $49 left. With Fannie Mae, you would have $2.50 left of the original
$1,000. With AIG, you would have less than $15 left. But, if you had
purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drunk all of the beer, then
turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have $214
cash.
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink
heavily and recycle.
