My P&G stock has been slipping for a few days now but it’s down over $3 a share today.

Buy the dip. P&G is a rare "set it and forget it" stock. Hold on and keep reinvesting the dividends, which P&G has steadily increased over the last 58 years. All the best to you.

I recommend Hormel Foods (HRL). Stock has risen 173% last five years, and dividends have increased for 48 straight years. Great management as well.

P&G is one stock I don’t worry about. All of my dividends are reinvested and it has been steadily growing. I retired 18 months ago at 58 and I’m 60 now. I plan to find some kind of work part-time just to keep me out of deadbeat status and will let the stock grow as long as possible without taking any distributions from it. I retired after almost 40 years at the same place and was in good enough financial shape to retire early. I’ve been working since I was 17 though and even though I’m enjoying being retired I know the time will come soon that I will want to be semi-retired. The longer I work, even at minimum wage, the longer I can let my stock grow without bothering it. All of my eggs are in one basket with stock but owning P&G stock won’t go wrong.

All the best to you too!
