Guest oa_exile Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 WISE WORDS FROM A STOCKBROKER 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 £5.00 .......but it's not all doom and gloom if you bought £1000 worth of Stella Artois one year ago, drank it all, then took the empty cans to an aluminium re-cycling plant, you would get £214.00 So based on the above statistics the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and re-cycle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikejh45 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Talk to Mike Ashley!!! I'm certain he took on Newcastle United as well as a few gallons of Newky Browns. Looking at his svelte figure, it's not difficult to see which one he got a decent return on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 But Mike Ashley only drinks alcohol free pints? NB. I don't think I'll take advice from someone that got burnt for £300M gambling on HBOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
