FANTASTIC ARTICLE!!!


Easy to read and understand... and really points to what I've been saying here for the last 3 years --- TOTAL RETURN is what is important!! It's not complicated and all the names in this list are companies you know. Just don't limit yourself to these companies only... it's just a comparison to make a point.

FWIW - NKE in last place on this list I bought 25 shares in '97, splits left me with 100 shares and 555% gain.

We won't talk about the 100 shares I bought in '76 for $5 and sold when I'd double my money at $10. Life would be much different now if I would have held on to that $500 investment.
