Did you own any of these during the ten year period cited? [November 1, 2009 to October 31, 2019]

10 Best Stocks of the Past 10 Years

https://www.kiplinger.com/article/inves ... years.html

Netflix
10-year cumulative return: 3,522%. Netflix (symbol NFLX) started streaming video in 2007, and the rest is history. Today, more than 158 million subscribers in 190 countries pay a monthly fee to watch its content, providing Netflix with a steady revenue stream. Although we still like the stock for patient in­vestors with a speculative bent, they should definitely buckle up for a bumpy ride. Competition is getting stiff, with traditional media heavies, such as Disney and NBC, entering the business with their own streaming services.

Amazon.com
10-year cumulative return: 1,221%. Now that Amazon.com (AMZN) has revolutionized the way Americans shop, the firm is eyeing shoppers overseas. Its U.K. and German businesses are already profitable, says Ramiz Chelat, a portfolio manager at Vontobel Asset Management. Amazon is No. 1 in e-commerce in Japan and is gaining ground in India. Meanwhile, Amazon's cloud computing business continues to thrive. Analysts expect 27.5% annual earnings growth over the next three years. Amazon's future, in other words, is rosy, says Chelat, who deems the stock an attractive opportunity.

I bought most of those for Dad via Navellier's stockpicking newsletter, but I only owned Netflix and Amazon myself, and not quite ten years.
Bought a lot of rotten eggs from same and had to sell them at a loss, but overall it did well.
I think I can capture a lot of that for myself by just buying some index funds and passive ETFs like Vanguard's midcap (VIMAX) and growth (VUG).
