Proud to be a Kiwi

Something I found lurking in my Inbox... (likely some of the figures are well out of date.

Just imagine...If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Air New Zealand one year ago, you would have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in the AA one year ago, you would have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Canterbury Finance 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 aluminium 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.

A recent study found that the average Kiwi walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Kiwi's drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means that, on average, Kiwi's get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Makes you damned proud to be a Kiwi!!
