Investments
 
If this has been previously posted forgive me but it still hits rings true (?)

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 a $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.

Nice figures Rick and so true. About every three or four months I take 3 garbage bags of aluminum cans down here to the recycle place and the last time I went I got almost $60 dollars for therm. I used to get around $40/$45 dollars for the same amount. I think I will start stripping all the aluminum I can find on my car off and taking it down too.
