Humble Oil/Exxon/XOM continuously, since 1967. It wasn't exactly cheap even back in the '60s-70s considering what the average wage was back then, but has paid good dividends and has 2:1 split numerous of times.Investing in a company tied to the oil industry would've been a good idea while it was still cheap.

Father told me when I was 16, to invest in something people use or need every day or every week, not once every few months or years, and gave brother and I one share each Humble Oil stock for our 16th birthday. I followed that pattern ever since. I bought quite a bit of Exxon in the early 80s for less than $5/share.
Gas is $2.24 here. Early Feb (before the freeze) it was $2.12.
Ouch.... that's double what I paid in DecemberGot propane delivered today... 2.39.
5 1/2 month update 7/27/21A friend asked at Christmas how long until $3 gas with democrats in control.
I said I don't know, but 2.22 is too too too much.
my guess was 2.89 by the 4th of July and 3.33 by the summer of 2022

Gas is actually higher than diesel here, in some cases they are the same priceNot quite as high as diesel....
