3 Stocks to Buy and Hold for Decades

Taking a long-term approach to investing sounds great in principle, but it can actually be difficult to put into practice for many investors. That's because many people get caught up in the daily financial news cycle or view one bad earnings report as a telltale sign that the company is doomed.

But picking great companies and holding them for years can be a great way to grow your wealth -- if you know where to look. That's why we asked a handful of Motley Fool contributors for three stocks that investors can buy now and hold for decades. They came back with Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B) and 3M (NYSE:MMM).
