"Stock Market"

Posted by vgbaron on 07-20-02 at 21:56z
For those who follow the U.S. Stock Market - some statistics -

If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.

With Enron, you would have $16.50 left from the original $1000.

With WorldComm you would have less than $5.00 left.

However - if you had bought $1,000 worth of Budweiser ( the BEER not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned the cans in for the 10¢ deposit, you would now have $214.00.

Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle!
