I’ve heard that song in films and commercials more than I ever remember hearing it on the radio.

If you are a good investor and have some money, you can get rich. I know a guy who sold his company in 2004, and invested the money in 10 different stocks. One of them was Apple Computer, and he’s now collecting a quarter of a million a year in dividends.

Novelty song turns into $175M fortune?

Something tells me Ferris would be quite pleased at this turn of events. Maybe he’s the one responsible for the stock tips?

The Yello duo has been around since 1979...saying Meier’s fortune is down to that one song is BS. And it ain’t “techno”...
