Toggie88 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hughesie27 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 True but if you invest ?1000 in most banks these days then provided they don't go under, in a couple of years you will make a tidy profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
