A decade? That is too long for me...just my opinion.
A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow, or in this case, in a decade

Restaurants seem to faddish to me for a long ride. Just my opinion though.

I typically avoid two industries altogether:
(1) Airlines
(2) Restaurants
and in that order. The margins associated with each are typically too low to warrant my investment.

IMO, I would not play these stocks on a buy and hold strategy with a 10 year timeline. Again IMO, in a buy and hold strategy I would expect the companies to very reputable have a solid business model and pay dividends. I love these companies for this strategy: MO, CVX (although a little lofty at the moment), and TLP (good growth company). Please do your own DD.

Yeah, I would say 700% is pretty good

As far as the original ?, I guess maybe 10 yrs is too long.. but I still think they will eventually go up once the luxury market comes back

Remember: other than dividends, it hasn't served you at all until you sell...or use it as leverage.

If you want to do buy and hold get a bigger company that you cannot conceive of going out of business in twenty years.
I did this 20 years ago with Chevron and Proctor/Gamble. I also did DRIPS instead of getting dividend checks. It's worked very well with almost no risk.
