You said "If I had to put my maiden aunt into stocks tomorrow, and not worry about her having to end up paring cheese in an attic, I would put her into MSFT, INTC, CSCO, and QCOM, 25% each, and sleep nights knowing she could always live off them for the next 10 years. They are going to be around and do well for a long time." I agree with you about maiden aunts and the Russian Army approach to investing (well sorta) You must agree that you prefer the returns of those new simians? I also agree that MSFT and INTC will be around forever. I love both companies. They are largely responsible for me being able to beat Uncle Frank to this role of private investor. In any case, I suspect as time goes on they will pale in returns at an increasing rate. By the way, what return have you indicated we should target as Gorilla hunters? Best Regards, Tom
