Oldfart 0 Posted November 7, 2012 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 insurance company one year ago, you would have £33.00 today.If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers five years ago, you would have nothing today.If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Northern Rock three years ago, you would have nothing todayBut, if you had purchased £1,000 worth of beer one year ago at Tesco's, drunk all the beer, then taken the aluminium cans to the scrap metal dealer, you would have received £214.00.Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. 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!
