Investment advice
If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.
With Enron, you would have $16.50 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 Budweiser (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.

| Had heard this quote before. But, again one year ago Nortel stock ain't that bad. You would still get more than your Bud Weiser's can. |

You can always double your money by folding it in half!  |

You would have to wait till you drank the $1000 worth of BW to fool youself into thinking that folding the money would double it. But I like the concept  |
