3 Stocks for a Better Retirement

If you're looking to put a little more gold in your golden years you're going to need more than gold -- or bonds, CDs, and whatever it is that you've been stashing away under your mattress. Stocks have historically been the best way to grow your money, and that's likely going to continue to be the case in the future.

You may want to avoid speculative penny stocks, profitless upstarts, and richly priced growth darlings, but there are still plenty of quality names out there. Target (NYSE:TGT), Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO), and Realty Income (NYSE:O) are quality investments with modest yields and room to appreciate. Let's see why these three stocks are ideal for a better retirement.
