401-Keg Plan - How college kids are taught about investing

[Copper Catcher]

If you had purchased $1,000/shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49 today! If you purchased $1,000/shares in AIG, you would have $33. If you purchased $1,000/shares in Lehman Brothers, you would have $0 today. But, if you purchased $1,000 worth of beer, drank all the beer, turned in the aluminum cans for recycling, you would have $214. So the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg Plan.
