Someone at the office forwarded this to me, and I just had to share!
--------------------------------------
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will 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 will have received $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg. A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found that
Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon
Makes you proud to be an American.

Our thoughts, opinions and whatever else we want to blog
Disclaimer
Our blog, our thoughts (even if it is primarily written by me, Emily). Events may or may not be factually accurate, they may be best guesses or whatever I find amusing. Names are probably not accurate, which makes it more fun for me. This is a blog about us, written by Emily (and sometimes David), so it's how I view my life. Welcome to my journey of self-reflection and insanity.

And let's not forget the amount of gas I put back into the system: a considerable amount! >.>
Now that's an investment plan I can get behind!
