*Aussie  Investing***

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, 
you will have $49.00 today.
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have 
$33.00 today.
If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, 
you will have $0.00 today.
But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all 
the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you 
will have received $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily 
& recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.
A recent study found that the average Australian walks about 900 miles a 
year.
Another study found that Australians drink, on average, 22 gallons of 
alcohol a year.
That means that, on average, Australians get about 41 miles to the gallon!

*Makes you proud to be an Australian!***
