Investment advice

[Grunt]

Subject: Investing in your retirement

If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would
now be worth $49.00.

With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.

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

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 had $214.00.

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

And if you'd put the money in the bank and paid the tax, you'd have nearly all of it left...

Beer will get dearer in your retirement, bet the government won't buy it for you. :)

Like my mother used to say “you ate it and it is yours”:cool: . In your case “you drank it and it is yours”:cool:

My mother is a wise woman.

The $1000 would have been better invested in Fosters Group....capital gain plus fully franked dividends.
