A little joke I received from a fellow co-op a couple months ago: If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would be worth $49.00. With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1,000.00. With Worldcom, you would have less than $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle. -- James On October 03, 2002 at 15:30:49, Russell Reagan wrote: >On October 03, 2002 at 15:22:33, James Swafford wrote: > > >>That may be true in general (I don't know), but I can tell you from >>experience at Nortel (as a co-op a year and a half ago) that they >>are standardizing on MS.
