If you had bought $1,000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would
now be worth $49.00. With Enron, you would have $16.50 left of the
original $1,000.00. With WorldCom, you would have less than $5.00
left.
If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Coors (the beer, not the stock)
one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the
10-cent deposit, you would have $214.00.
Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily
and recycle. This is my new retirement program...I call it my 401-Keg
program.
