Drink heavily; recycle

An investment banker said of the current Wall Street calamity:

“If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago, you would have $49 left.

With Fannie Mae, you would have $2.50 left of the original $1,000.

With AIG, you would have less than $15 left.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 dollars worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have $214 Cash.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to Drink Heavily and recycle!”
