Is it normal to drink because of this?
I drink for my Retirement Planning.
If I had purchased $1000 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.
With Enron, I would have have $16.50 left of the original $1000.
With WorldCom, I would have had less than $5 left.
If I had purchased $1000 of Delta Airline stock, I would have $49 left.
Instead, I purchased $1000 worth of wine one year ago, drank all the wine, the turned in the bottles for the recycling REFUND, and I now have $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment advise is to drink heavily and recycle.
Beat that, Donald Trump!
