Investment advice for you

[Greedo]

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 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 recycle.

On those figures, if you had leased the shares, then you'd have made a gross profit of £995. If you had geared the leasing, then the profit would have been nearly £20,000.

p.s. £1000 ~ 2000 cans

Current price of recycled aluminium can is approx 1p - so the calculation is more like £20 - but still better value

If I had the money I have spent on the Memsahib, I would have a garage full of top-end carbon road bikes!!!
