In light of recent market conditions, I thought this might be a good tip to pass along:

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 $1000.00.

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

If you had bought $1000.00 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.
