“Nestlé’s become controversial because they’re growing a little slower. You know, they own L’Oreal. People don’t know what’s going to happen. But it has a three, three-and-a-half percent yield. They sell products that the world needs. And I was in Indonesia, in all these little places. Nestle products everywhere. You know? And I think that you could own Nestle, put it in your back pocket, or your safety deposit box, and come back in ten years, and it’ll be worth more.”
