Nice satire there mgt.
What should I invest a fiver in this week?
(I helped save b3ta! brb Monkhouse Stampede, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 18:23, archived)
crisps

(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 18:27, archived)
What, like PepsiCo?

(I helped save b3ta! brb Monkhouse Stampede, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 18:35, archived)
eh?
Pepsi is a drink, what are you on about?

They own Walkers.

I don't see how that's relevant,
I advised him to buy crisps, not drinks companies that own crisp companies.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 18:52, archived)
if he buys the drinks company that owns a crisp company,
hasn't he effectively bought all of the crisps?

not really, no.

(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 18:58, archived)
but he would own a crisp company

(I helped save b3ta! Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:02, archived)
yeah but they might have a backlog of crisp orders from retail outlets,
which would mean in effect he'd then own negative crisps, which is exactly what you don't want.

He'd be in crisp debt.

i bet he could just go down to the factory and take as many crisps as he wanted,
if he owned the crisp company
nobody would stop him

what and go crisp bankrupt?

(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:30, archived)
i doubt the lines are so fine that him taking a few bags of crisps ruins his business model

(I helped save b3ta! Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:36, archived)
then again, you are his accountant so it's probably a well shit business model or whatever i dunno

Classic MGT.

(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 18:57, archived)
It is relevant because that's why I asked.
PepsiCo own Walkers,one of the largest crisp companies in the UK. I thought you were saying I should invest in crisps, not just buy £5 worth of fucking crisps from Asda. You're my financial advisor, I don't pay you for nutritional advise. Sort it out.
(I helped save b3ta! brb Monkhouse Stampede, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:01, archived)
yes in crisps,
not in crisp companies, I don't know how many crisp companies you think you can get for a fiver.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:02, archived)
I'm looking to buy stocks and shares not the whole thing, jesus fucking christ.
You want me to sell crisps now or what?
(I helped save b3ta! brb Monkhouse Stampede, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:05, archived)
buy cheese and onion
sell prawn cocktail
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:06, archived)
About a tenth of a share of PepsiCo.
You're as bad at financial advice as you are at ... all that other stuff.

I'm seriously considering firing her over this debarcle.

(I helped save b3ta! brb Monkhouse Stampede, Sun 23 Feb 2014, 19:13, archived)
I don't think you can fire somebody because of her debacles. That would be sex discrimination.
