INVESTING FOR YOUR RETIREMENT:

If you had purchased $1,000.00 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.

It's called the 401-Keg Plan.

To bad you really wouldn't have 214 dollars from the aluminum recyclying fund.

Assuming you buy 30 cases of Beast for 12.99 a pack. Investing 1000 dollars would be about 77 cases, or 2310 beers. Assuming you are in a lucky state to get 5 cents a can, that would equal $115.50.

I prefer the L fund.... put all your money invested in scratch-off tickets.

This is sooo old that the "one year ago" really no longer applies.

If you live in Michigan, where there is a $.10 deposit, it's possible to get that much money from cans. (Remember Newman and Kramer in the postal truck?)
