Invest Wisely

[Fetzervalve]

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 a $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.

Also, 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.

Perhaps I should turn in the cans' date=' instead of paying the town to take them away. I think I may live in the wrong state.[/quote']The math on that one may not be exactly correct, in Iowa we can get a nickel for taking a can back to the store, but we had to give them the same nickel when we bought it, but that's still a better return than Lehman Bros!
