Never mind .... been done already !!
« on: 01 October 2008, 22:27:48 »
 It`s been a very unusual week, with HBOS, Lehmann Brothers and all that! I think we need to put some perspective on this

 

If you had purchased £1000 of Northern Rock shares one year ago it would now be worth £4.95,

With HBOS, earlier this week your £1000 would  have been worth £16.50.

£1000 invested in XL Leisure would now be worth less than £5  ......


But if you bought £1000 worth of Tennents Lager one year ago, drank it all, then took the empty cans to an aluminium re-cycling plant, you would get £214.

 

So, based on the above statistics the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and re-cycle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can't afford to look away for long. Whilst you were gone, the old owner of your Omega was on here.  ::)

Ah, yes, I noticed that -- but was at work so couldn't jump in!

Since being home I have been battling VOSA (via email) over SVA queries, upsetting the College of Arms (again via email) and generally making myself unpopular --- so forgot to come back and have a peek  :-[
