Stock prices fluctuate. You only lose money if you buy high and sell low.

Buy smart and hold long. That's what I've been doing for over 35 years and it's served me well.

Anybody who sells stock during a correction is a fool. When stocks are down, hold and continue to buy. Then ride it all back up later. That strategy has never failed.

Dollar cost averaging.

Half my stock portfolio is over 20 years old. Another 30% is over 7 years.

Love those qualified dividends!
