This email is funny on a # of levels. The math is despicable and the punch line is ammusing. I have to share as it goes to show how clueless the rubes on main street are as they pass around these microscopic pooh particles (farts) which they often retain as fact.

“If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today. If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have $33.00 today. If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have $0.00 today. But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you would have received $214.00. Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.”

I replied to my realtor and told him to stop forwarding this nonsense. “No offense, but this email is super retarded” was my opening line. My next reply will be, “Dude, SRS is gonna tear your brokerage to shreds along with all of your gay business cards you leave every where!”

I second the Fly’s motion, SRS will sit at $100 by halloween.

 
P.S. Realtors are so fucking over paid and the industry has almost no reason to exist. House transactions should involve you, the bank, and the title. No?
