If you had bought $1000 worth of Nortel stock one year ago,
it would now be worth $49.
With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1000.
With Worldcom, you would have less than $5 left.
If you had bought $1000 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not
the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in
the cans for the 10 cent deposit in some states, you would
have $214.
Based on the above, my current investment advice is to stick
to drinking and recycle. |
