You’re worried about McDonald’s? Nah, you don’t need to worry about McDonald’s. Look, McDonald’s, it does have a, it has a beef issue. Beef is too expensive. But it yields 2.6, it’s got a great reputation, and it sells at 21 times earnings. It can get down to 18, 19. Here’s the way you do McDonald’s: You want to buy 100 shares? You buy 25 at 280. This is what I’m doing, by the way, with some of my stocks in my Charitable Trust. I’m buying really small amounts way down, get a better basis. 25 at 279, 25 at 270, 25 at 265, and then 50 if it does get to 260, and then you’ll have a great basis, and you’ll be doing just terrific.
