Title: Shares
Post by: tizaala on August 11, 2011, 07:29:29 am
If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you
would have £49.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have
£33.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you
would have £0.00 today.

But, if you had purchased£1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer,

then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you would have received a £214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle.

A recent study found that the average Briton walks about 900 miles a year.
Another study found that Britons drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.
That means that, on average, Britons get about 41 miles to the gallon!
