401-k retirement plans, what does it all mean?
Retirement plans compared...
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.
With WorldCom, you would have less than $5.00 left.
If you had purchased $1000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock you would have $49.00 left.
If you had purchased United Airlines, you would have nothing left.
But, if you had purchased $1000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank
all the beer, then turned in the cans for recycling, you would have $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment advise is
to drink heavily and recycle.
This is called the 401-Keg Plan.
Note: I almost put this in the "The joke box" but its sadley not becoming a joke. I do not drink but saw this and heisted it for those who can relate! lol Bill
