Thanks. Though I feel safer with her having more positions, a little bell went off when you mentioned getting the compounding started early. I couldn't come up with a good reason to wait, regardless of position size, if she is going to hold ( hopefully ) until she retires.

Holding came up in our discussion, and we talked about how stuff happens, and there is no guarantee about the future, but the only reason she could think of besides her retirement for taking the money, were possibly college costs. I figure that is a minimum of 19 years away, with plenty of time to plan ahead.

Here are her holdings. All except for ? of course. I'd like to see other peoples ideas. Her question was phrased something like - Aren't there any stocks yielding 3% that could do double the market in twenty years?
