The Three-Way Beer Strategy

Is it really a strategy, or just a convenient circumstance? Either way, it works however indirect the return may be ultimately, and how mostly insignificant the contributions are.
I drink Miller Lite and own shares of Miller Coors who owns and sells the brand. So, naturally, every time I buy a case of Miller Lite that helps their bottom line which helps mine too.
At the same time, I own shares of Walmart and Kroger, and I buy cases of beer from both of these stores frequently. So, in that way the beer sale contributes to all three stocks indirectly.
In an odd way, at least in my funny brain, it makes me think that in some odd way every time I buy beer I am inadvertently decreasing my cost of the cases. It's probably not true...
But it helps to justify the purchase. lol

That makes sense, cause every case you buy it goes towards
the investment you have in the company & your pocket.

I think we all have the same thinking of buying our favorites. Anyway I don't drink, but any freebies that I can get from the different coffee shop I took it.

I'm glad I don't have to justify every purchase! Have a good weekend,
