Keep in mind that paraphrasing (putting original text into your own wording and sentence structure; view the paraphrasing page for more info) is often better than quoting. After all, most of the time it is the information that is important, not the wording that is used to provide it.

Long Term Investments are those when you hold your stock, assets, bonds etc for a duration which is more than a year, may be ten years or something that you intend to hold for even much longer. If you are the one who is not running after quick returns then long term investments are your cup of tea.
