The Secret to Buy and Hold Success
Got a Buy and Hold Story? Tell Tracey
Do You Have a Buy and Hold Story?
Did your parents buy shares of Philip Morris in 1945?
Do you have an 80-something aunt who still owns shares of Ford from when her father worked there in the 1930s?
Did you buy shares of Home Depot in 1985 because you lived in Atlanta and loved the stores?
Did you buy shares in McDonalds in the 1970s because they “just loved” those cheeseburgers (and so did your kids?)
You know who you are.
Don’t be shy! I’m looking for people with buy and hold stories to share. 15 years, 20 years, or 50 years. How long have you owned?
Tell me your stories! I want to hear all about it. The triumphs: Philip Morris (the most successful stock in the S&P 500 since 1957). And yes, the tragedies: Ford, GM, the airlines stocks (most have NOT done well since 1957.)
Be proud of being a buy and hold investor. It takes guts and patience.
