Sorry -- I forgot to include some info….


I had bought Starbucks (SBUX) because I like the place… and frequent their stores and buy their coffee for home brewing. Their Total Return for one year - 50.8%

I don't hold much of this - simply because of it's paltry 1.3% dividend… but remember that we have to look at TOTAL RETURN over just the dividend payout === because it's the total return that makes your money grow!!
