Need a little break ?

I received this from a friend , and thought I'd share it.

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
$1,000.00.
>
With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
>
With Lucent, you would have $3.50 left of the original $1000.00.

But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminium recycling REFUND
you would have had $214.00.
>
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to
drink heavily and recycle.
>
It's called the 401-Keg Plan.
--------------------------------------...

( the drinking heavy may not be a good idea ! )

If you did 1000 dollard with Apple when they first started you would have 40 thousand dollars to buy even more beer with.
