Default Other Serious Investors

If you had purchased $1000 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49. With Enron, you would only have $16.50 left of the original $1000 investment. With Worldcom, even worse, you would have only $5 left.

But, if you had purchased $1000 worth of Fosters (in the big beercontainers,not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling price, you would have $214. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

This in now my new retirement program; I call it my 401-Keg. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
