drink and recycle

[scooter01]

Here's a little something to help you put the current situation in perspective.


If you had purchased $1,000 of AIG stock one year ago, you would have
$42 left.


With Lehman, you would have $6.60 left.


With Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, you would have less than $5 left.


But if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have had $214.


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



It's called the 401-Keg

Interesting perspective, and investment strategy.... :D .

Hey, it's Monday.....some are going to be kind of crabby. Or, maybe he's one of those guys with only $42 left.

OK, even if you bought Bud Light in 24 packs in Michigan, where the deposit is 10c, I don't see how you can get $214 back from purchasing $1000 worth of beer. the total bottle deposit would have to be over 1/5 the price of the 24 pack.
