Editors Note: This post originally appeared on October 17th 2009. Have a Happy Halloween and Enjoy!
Its that time of year again…
As we speak, your neighborhood freak is busy shoving rusty screws into the Milky Way bars, teen boys are stocking up on eggs and toilet paper and teen girls are shopping for either a slutty nurse, slutty devil, slutty maid, or slutty marketing executive costume.
That’s right! Halloween is upon us!
Screams will be heard, children will be embarrassed by their parents, candy corn will be eaten (reluctantly).
Want to frighten an investor this year? Here are the Top Ten Scariest Wall Street Halloween Costumes for 2009:
