If you had made a fixed deposit at some of the major banks of R1, 000 one year ago, you would have about R49,00 left.
On JSE (Johannesburg Stock Exchange), you would have R2.50 left of the original R1, 000.
With Sanlam Offshore investment, you would have less than R15.00 left.
But, if you had purchased R1, 000 worth of beer one year ago, drunk all of it, then turned in the cans for the aluminium recycling refund, you would have R214.00 cash.
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink a lot so you can recycle. StevieP "Cute"Festive

One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who did not whine, nag, or bitch.
But it was a long time ago, and it was just that one day.
A Woman was out golfing one day when she hit the ball into the woods.She went into the woods to look for it and found a frog in a trap.The frog said to her, 'If you release me from this trap, I will grant you three wishes.' The woman freed the frog, and the frog said, 'Thank you, but I failed to mention that there was a condition to your wishes.Whatever you wish for, your husband will get times ten!'The woman said, 'That's okay.' For her first wish, she wanted to be the most beautiful woman in the world.The frog warned her, 'You do realize that this wish will also make your husbandthe most handsome man in the world, an Adonis whom women will flock to'. The woman replied, 'That's okay, because I will be the most beautiful Woman andhe will have eyes only for me.'So, KAZAM-she's the most beautiful Woman in the world!For her second wish, she wanted to be the richest woman in the world. The frog said, 'That will make your husband the richest man in the world. And he will be ten times richer than you.'The woman said, 'That's okay, because what's mine is his and what's his is mine.' So, KAZAM-she's the richest woman in the world!The frog then inquired about her third wish, and she answered, 'I'd like a mildheart attack.'Moral of the story: Women are clever. Don't mess with them. Attention female readers : This is the end of the joke for you. Stop here and continue feeling good.Male readers :Please scroll down............................The man had a heart attack ten times milder than his wife.Moral of the story : Women are really dumb but think they're really smart. Let them continue to think that way and just enjoy the show. PS: If you are a woman and are still reading this; it only goes to show that women never listen ...now run along and put the kettle on .
