I say we come up with a list of POSITIVE investment strategies that
offer better returns than the -65% that the Republicans got on their
hedge fund.
1) Buy 200 million $1 lottery tickets. Invest all winnings in more
lottery tickets, until you hit the big jackpot. Estimated return:
-$200 million or -57%.
2) Sell 17,500 $20,000 cars for $10,000 each. This will yield net
topline revenues of $175 million. (And net profits of -$175 million,
or a -50% return).
3) A faith-based initiative: Give $100,000 gifts to 1000 different
churches, synagogues, mosques, covens, and temples. Pray really hard
for money to fall from heaven. Estimated return: anywhere from -$100
million (-29%) to inifinity, which is, of course, the scope of god’s
love for puppies and small children.
