Someone just emailed me this: If you bought $1000 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $72. If you bought $1000 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not the stock) one year ago, drank all the beer, and traded in the cans for the nickel deposit, you would have $79.

And what the hell is that a picture of?
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:10:51 pm)
Decoy:
Its one of those games where you have say what's wrong with the picture.

Ok, so tom has some money in special accounts and he put all this money in my name and I don't even care what happens to it. My friend's work partner was complaining that her portfolio has been falling for a year and shes really upset. Who gives a fuck I say. I could care less. Whats wrong with me? Maybe I need a head shrink.

bela:
AND, this girl is from a super wealthy family - her father invented something but I can't remember what it was. Anyway, why would she care about what happens to her portfolio? Its not like she's ever going to be poor, her family are millionaires. I don't understand people really.

Dollar cost average, I hope you do.

bela:
Huh? Why do you talk in nonsensical puzzles.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:16:37 pm)
Decoy:
Its good advice.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:18:08 pm)
bela:
Honestly, I don't. I had this friend who I just couldn't be friends with anymore because she drove me nuts about money. Her parents were really wealthy, millionaires and she was so cheap and talked about money all the time I couldn't stand it anymore. It drove me crazy. I hate cheap people. She would haggle over everything. Uugh, I hate that.

bela:
Oh well, maybe what you have to say means something to someone, not to me.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:21:29 pm)
Decoy:
If you don't care about money, you probably would not have ever heard the term before. Its Ok. The question is what would you rather do? Work or save money. If you're rich already, then who cares on both points?

gipsys.

Is that a ticker symbol?
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:25:01 pm)
bela:
Exactly!

Dirt and tuna sandwich eating gipsys.

Dollar cost average I hope you do means something?
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:26:13 pm)
bela:
I'd rather not work, not save money but have someone give me money when I want to buy something.

That picture's got to be a fake.

But if I try and sell this idea to the old man I'm sure I'll get some stupid remark in return and won't be taken seriously.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:28:24 pm)
bela:
Stay away Queenie I'm on a tangent about cheap people. Do you have anything to contribute?
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:29:00 pm)
Queenie:
Not really.

Queenie:
But my pepper bacon was delish!
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:29:55 pm)
bela:
Yuck. You complain about being fat and look at the crap you eat.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:30:45 pm)
Decoy:
Its this. If you invest $100 dollars a month in the stock market for ten years running, you have significantly greater odds to end up with more money than if you invest the whole pile and wait ten years. Its good because most people don't have pile, they only have a few dollars a month. The idea is build the pile and then quit your job and live off the interest.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:31:29 pm)
Queenie:
If I'm going to be fat, it may as well be for a good reason like too much pepper bacon consumption.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:31:43 pm)
Queenie:
Imagine being a vegan and still fat. I know people like that. Sad, really.
(Thu Sep 27, 2001 - 2:32:07 pm)
Queenie:
It's no kind of life.

How much do you get for recycling $1000 worth of vodka bottles? That's.. 50 bottles, about a years worth.

Chewing Wax:
I only know one vegan and she was huge. It's all the peanut oil. And soybeans. Calories are calories.
