This will probably go into the comedy club
Sorry mods if that is the case. It is factual too so thought post it here...
If you had purchased £1000 of Northern Rock shares one year ago it would now be worth £4.95, with HBOS, earlier last 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!!! |

Re: This will probably go into the comedy club
The first one might be right. The second one's totally wrong (even if you bought at the highest ever and sold at the lowest ever it'd still be worth £74). The third one seems plausible... The fourth one, about the cans, is obviously RUBBISH! Unless your tennents comes in gold tins

Is there much point in robbing a bank now? Can you imagine you get there all tooled up and find an IOU in the safe........
