Title: Retirement - I'm adjusting my plan
Post by: bassboogieman on July 19, 2008, 08:42:09 PM
RETIREMENT PLANNING 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 p urchased $1000 of Delta Air Lines stock you would ha ve $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.

So, based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

It's called the 401-Keg Plan.

Boy that's old...  Enron went belly up long ago and became worthless.  So did WorldCom.

Yeah, but aluminium is going strong. . . .  AND there are several new beers available to sample and add to the stockpile of cans - BONUS!
