Default Re: OT : A psychosocial question

This is the kinda stuff that Philosophers and mathematicians are good at!
If you bought:
1. $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.

2. Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1000.00.

3. WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.

4. 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 earned $214.00.

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

See, and you thought all that math was junk?
