Want to Get Richer? 2 Top Stocks to Buy and Hold Forever
The stock market is an excellent vehicle for generating wealth over many years. It isn't the only way to build up a large retirement nest egg, of course, but owning a diversified portfolio of stocks puts you in a great position to benefit from the long-term growth of the global economy.

With that goal in mind, let's look at a few stocks that seem destined to be a positive force in your retirement portfolio.
