I am not fond of stocks and I have no intention of investing in stocks. However, my wife was given stocks of her employer with a market value of $20,000 (that’s 1 million Philippine pesos). The stocks were in her holdings for 3 years now. My plan is to sell the stocks to augment my funds so I can buy a lot which would be our retirement investment that can earn us the rent when we build an apartment. However, my wife said that she has no plans of selling her stocks because that is part of her investment for retirement. That makes sense so I did not argue.
Do you really think that the stocks can be a good investment for the retirement? The annual dividend is pretty small. The blue chip stocks are safe from depreciation but it is very slow in terms of increasing market price. What is your take on that?
