We are back!
After a 4-year lay off, the Making Finance
Work blog is officially back in business.
Looking back at posts that we put up in
2009, it is clear that our advice to you was clear – buy and hold stocks and shares.
If
we take a look at some of the share prices at our last sign off in 2009, you
will see that if you had heeded our advice, you would be sitting very pretty
right now.
Let’s take a look at some of the S and P
500 players out there:
General Electric (GE)
July
2009* price - $13.40
May 2013** price – $23.53
McDonalds (MCD)
July 2009 price - $69.73
May 2013 price - $100.29
Proctor and Gamble (PG)
July 2009 price $55.51
May 2013 price $81.88

It is quite clear that buying and holding
