Thank God that none of these were in my portfolio.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you
would have £49.00 today

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have
£33.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you
would have £0.00 today.

If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Northern Rock three years ago, you
would have £0.00 today

But, if you had purchased £1,000 worth of beer one year ago at Tesco,
drank all the beer, then taken the aluminium cans to the scrap metal dealer,
you would have received a £214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily &
recycle.

 

 And then..........................


A recent study found that the average Briton walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Britons drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a
year.

That means that, on average, Britons get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Makes you proud to be British.
