Whomp, since you are a financial genius I'd like to get your opinion on the following information that I got from a fellow worker about retirement planning.....

Quote:
quote:Retirement planning:

If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Nortel stock three years go, 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.

But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer three years ago, drank
all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling
REFUND,you would have had $614.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink
heavily and recycle.

It's called the 401-Keg Plan
