If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago, you would have $49 left. With Fannie Mae you would have $2.50 left of the original $1,000. With AIG you would have less than $15 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 $214 cash.
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle. It's called the 401-Keg.

It's still humorous though.
