c8sup Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Just found this on another site... Financial Advice in these dark times. If you had purchased $1000 of Northern Rock shares one year ago, it would now be worth $4.95. With HBOS, earlier this week, your $1000 would have been worth $16.50. $1000 invested in XL Leisure would now be worth less than $5. But if you bought $1000 worth of Tennents Lager one year ago, drank it all, then took the empty cans to an aluminum recycling plant, you would get $214. So, based on the above statistics, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle. __________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
