Fun with investing

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago,you will 

have $49.00 today. If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, 

you will have $33.00 today. If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman 

Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today. 

 

But,if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, 

then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you will have received 

$214.00. Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink 

heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg. 

 

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year. 

Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a 

year. That means  that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon! 

Makes you proud to be an American!
