10 Expensive Stocks That Are Worth Every Penny

Stock #9 – Google (GOOG)

Everyone who uses the Internet knows what a powerful tool Google’s (GOOG) search engine is. In fact, the ubiquity of Google searches has now put the company’s name firmly in our verbal lexicon. Hey, you know that you’ve made it big as a company when your name becomes a verb, as in, “I Googled myself.”  Fortunately for shareholders, Google is more than just a catchy verb.

Shares of the search engine firm have delivered an incredible 313% gain over the past five years, and year-to-date the shares are up a very solid 62%. I think that despite the near $500 share price, GOOG shares still are a bargain, and that means they are likely to search out some very nice gains for high-priced stock enthusiasts.
