Money Matters

Howdy~!

Well...about 5 year ago, my wife and I each put a couple grand into individual ROTH IRA accounts.
They are almost back up to their original value...

In doing some research I see that if I had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would
now be worth $49.00.
With Enron, I would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, I would have had less than $5.00 left.

But, if I had purchased $1,000.00 worth of Beer one year ago, drank it all, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, I'd have $214.00.

Drat. I should have known. I knew beer was a good idea.
(sigh) I reckon its time to make a withdrawl from the bank so I can make an investment.
