Some Perspective

For those of us who have a LONG way to go before retirement, I received this from a good friend...sadly I don't drink beer. Pass me a scotch.

Retirement Income:

If you had purchased $1,000 of AIG stock one year ago, you would have $42 left.

With Lehman, you would have $6.60 left.

With Fannie or Freddie, you would have less than $5 left.

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

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

It's called the 401-Keg.....

As Hack and Slash would say...God save the Keg!
