Beer-- A good investment??


In the past few weeks, the United States have experienced drastic changes in the economy and people are fearful of where to invest their money.  Therefore, we share with you an email that was sent to us about the amount of money a person would be left with if he/she invested in these companies.  

Enjoy!!


If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago, you would have $49.00 left.

With Merrill Lynch , you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.

With Lehman Brothers , you would probably have nothing, but if you were lucky, less than $5.00 left.

However, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of  BEER one year ago, drank all of the beer, then turned in the bottles and cans for the recycling REFUND, you would have $214.00 cash.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice: drink heavily and recycle. 
It's called the 401-Keg plan.

Also, in other news:

A recent study found, the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found Americans drink, on the average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Makes You Proud To Be An American!


Lesson of the day:  Drink more beer and recycle!!

Quote of the day:
Some people see the glass half-empty. some people see the glass half full. I say it's beer man, just drink it!! ~author unknown~
