While having a nice cash savings is a great idea for when there's an unexpected expense, it's just about impossible to save your way to a big nest egg -- particularly in the low-interest rate environment savers have experienced for a decade now. But all isn't lost, particularly if you're saving for the long term, since high-quality dividend stocks can make for wonderful wealth builders.
Yes, they may lose value over the short term. But the best, most financially strong companies selling popular -- and profitable -- products and services, will ride out the ups and downs of the economy and the stock market, and investors who invest and hold for the long term come out ahead. To help you get started on building your nest egg, three Motley Fool investors have identified a group of top dividend stocks -- AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T), Polaris Industries Inc. (NYSE:PII), and Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX) -- that they think are up to the task.
