A guy I know sent me this e-mail. Found it ammusing.Invest Wisely
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our accountant just told me this.
If you had bought $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.
With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, you would have less than $5.00 left.
If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of COORS LITE (the beer, not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00.
Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily andrecycle. This is my new retirement program; its the 401Keg program.
