Drinking Beer Makes Some Serious Economic Sense

I received the following in an email from my very wise and financially savvy Uncle Bill. Although I’ve never been one for math, this makes total sense to me!

Consider the following:

With the economy and how it is affecting the value of stocks, you should be extra careful as you choose your investments.

  • If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.
  • With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1000.00.
  • With WorldCom, you would have less than $5.00 left.
  • If you had purchased $1000 of Delta Air Lines stock you would have $36.00 left.

But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling refund, you would have $214.00.Hops Holster Drink Can Belt

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

It’s called the 401-Keg Plan.

With that kind of logic, this hops holster might even be considered a money belt. Just consider KegWorks your newest source for expert “financial planning” advice.
