    Long-term mathematical studies don't lie. The guys who think they can beat the market are the same as the guys who think they can beat poker. 99.9999% chance they can't. The tech boom, the deregulation of the financial industry and the media worship of the occasional success story have made a bunch of testosterone-fuelled keyboard cowboys think they can pick stocks. They can't, and you can't either. Wall Street thanks you for being gullible.

    Tobacco is a cash cow and pays great dividends. Most of the growth is occurring in the third world and nobody gives a shit how many people in the third world choose to kill themselves. I have a couple in my portfolio.

    Not gambling with my retirement and leaving something to my kids, when it's not necessary to do so. This attitude is why Americans are in pathetic financial shape and why you are in for some deep deep shit when the republicans take away your social security and Medicaid.

    Best advice so far. RTN Raytheon has been my best example of this.

    If you are looking at long time horizons you have to have a come to Jesus about your entry point as this is a pretty inflated/toppy moment in history.

    You may never get entry like 2008 2009 2010 but there is always a sale. Keep the powder dry or swing trade a breakout.

    AMZN thru 1200 and frankly RTN thru 190’ish were recent quick examples. Set an alarm if it breaks out and ride til it begins to consolidate again and waste your time value. Not gonna make you rich - it’s called grinding a profit

    Looking for a stock to park $25,000 in and forget about it

    What was the final decision on this?

    I ask because I like to buy some stocks and watch the market, but I am just a typical nobody investor. To answer the OP question, I listed some below, in my opinion only.

    Tier 1- Long term winners
    ExxonMobil, Verizon, So Cal Gas and Nevada Energy (I own all 4)

    Tier 2- Long term wildcards
    Starbucks, T-Mobile and Dutch Bros (I own DB).

    Tier 3- Long term solid companies I just watch
    PG&E

    Notes- I bought 1 share of Dutch Bros just to watch it. I want to buy T-Mobile eventually, but not right now. I’m not really excited about Starbucks, but see it as a good buy. I really like So Cal Gas Co, but Nevada Energy really interests me at a Div of 6.03%. I also like PG&E and should get back into it, but just not feeling it right now.

    Obviously it’s all about the dividends. T-Mobile is a low dividend right now at 1.88% and I strongly assume it will go up soon. So Cal Gas Company is at 6.06% and I just bought 1 share now because it’s one of my favs. And only 1 share of NVEC.


    Druff- Please watch the Nevada Energy stock.
