Bought my first batch of individual stocks yesterday! After reading enough about Warren Buffett to buy into the value-based investment approach of Berkshire Hathaway, I tapped into their class B shares. Their annual return of about 7% a year over the last ten years easily topped the S&P 500's treading water with negligible growth. 125 @ $80.48. The impact of every 1% of investment return makes a tremendous difference upon retirement assets. Hopefully boarding the bandwagon of America's most famous investor will get the train to the station!
