If you had purchased R1,000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth R49.00.
With Enron, you would have had R16.50 left of the original R1,000.00
With WorldCom, you would have had less than R5.00 left.
If you had purchased R1,000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock, you would have R49.00 left.

But, if you had purchased R1,000.00 worth of wine one year ago, drunk all the wine,
then turned in the bottles for the recycling REFUND,
you would have had R214.00!

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Forward this phenomenal information to people you care about ...

well I am putting as much effort into this plan as my liver will tolerate

If I could just recycle the scotch bottles I would up my silver purchases

that should just about fix me up

No argueing with that logic.
 
It's good to know that even after all these years since university, my initial retirement plan is proven valid and still working.

Way ahead of ya,,, been recycling for years now. Sounds like a solid (if not fun) plan
 
Klippies and Coke here we come!

Everyone is going green we may as well join them.

I'll have to give it a try with some Appleton's tonight.... while I recycle some 300 brass!
 
Good plan but I'm going to do it with beer. Aluminum at .85 a pound is worth more than glass, a case a night may pay for my next Safari. :)
 
In Queenstown, NZ, someone even built his retirement home out of the empty bottles. Now, THAT is a retirement plan (it also makes an unequivocal statement about the homeowner...)

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
