Good Investment Strategy

Retirement Plan

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

With Enron, you would have $16.50 left of the original $1000.00.

With Worldcom, you would have less than $5.00 left.

But if you had purchased $1000.00 of Coors (the beer, not the stock) one
year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum
recycling price, you would have $214.00.

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