That is how - over time - you get ahead.

Not recommending the name -- I am just using it as another example of this theory of getting paid to watch and wait - and getting growth etc out of great, best of breed names, and sleeping well at night too. Boring? Yeah - pretty much... but FUN too when you're making money on your money.
I was starting to research last night.. for my next two purchases.. and KMB is one i have my eye closely on.
