Try my financial advisor's philosophy:

If you bought $1,000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now
be worth $49.00.
   
And, if you bought $ 1,000.00 worth of WorldCom at $16 dollars a share
one year ago, it would now be worth $5.63.
   
Forget ENRON as it does not compute.
   
That's a total of $54.63.
   
However, if you bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not the
stock) @ $11.99 per case one year ago (83.4 cases) and drank all the
beer, and traded in the cans for the 10 cents per each aluminum can
deposit, you would have $200.
   
Therefore, my financial advisor has suggested that it is financially
prudent in these troubled times to drink heavily and recycle.
