Retirement Planning

If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.

With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1000.00.

With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.

If you had purchased $1000 of Delta Air Lines stock, you would have $49.00 left.

But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer/wine one year ago, drank all the beer/wine, then turned in the cans/bottles for the aluminium and glass recycling REFUND, you would have had $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to Drink heavily and recycle.

Well the stock market is never a sure bet, and that is evident from your post... I do however like to place a sure bet and the safest and surest one I have come to rely on is savings bonds,,, I buy them for my grandkids for each occasion along with other goodies but since they are young and have no need for money at this time in there lives by the time they do need it it will be there the bonds will have matured and the amount I paid for them will have doubled so I am pretty happy with the results.
