Want $1 Million In Retirement? Invest $100 a Month in These 3 Stocks and Don't Look Back.

Building a million-dollar retirement portfolio takes a combination of three things. You need to invest enough money into investments that are generating a high enough return to reach that target by the time you want to retire.
For example, investing $100 a month into three stocks (a total of $300 each month) that are generating a 12.5% annualized total return would grow to more than $1 million in 30 years. To reach $1 million faster, you'd need to either increase your monthly investment or make higher-returning investments.
Not many companies have delivered a return of 12.5% (or more) over multiple decades. However, three companies that have done that in the past are Brookfield Corporation (NYSE: BN) , NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE) , and Realty Income (NYSE: O) . They're also in strong positions to continue generating returns at or above that level in the future.
