Dividends from SCHD are generally taxed at the qualified dividend rate, often providing a tax advantage over ordinary income rates for many investors. However, current market attention is centered on Nvidia, which has significantly contributed to the S&P 500’s recent earnings growth. Nvidia’s stock, up over 90% year-to-date, gained another 2.5% on Monday in New York, propelling the Nasdaq 100 to a new record high. I’m actively seeking new opportunities to enhance performance within my $350K portfolio and open to strategic ideas.

The U.S. dollar is facing significant devaluation. In contrast, Bitcoin has emerged as the best-performing asset in history, proving to be an outstanding store of value. A decade from now, you'll likely be grateful for every dollar you invested in Bitcoin.

What are your thoughts on BXSL ?

VGT outperformed SCHD and VOO over 5 and 10 years. Despite having most of my $500k retirement in VGT. theoretically, long term retention looks good, I try to beat my Roth with my taxable account but still underperform the S&P 500.

The S&P 500 is one of the simplest, most reliable ways to build wealth. Forget stock picking or trying to time the market. Most people fail at that. Put your money the S&P500, and forget it. Let compounding work its magic over time.

WeBull does not trade MPLXP. I'm the commoner, what assets would even be available?😅❤

With dividend yields this high it doesn't matter if the payouts are volatile, one must simply not be dependent on one weeks dividend and instead rely on a longer term average yield. Using options on the indices would also hedge against a bubble pop which is the big risk with these funds that you alluded to.

Speculatory?

EOS - long track record, total return beating the S&P in some timeframes and very close in others. The Price Return is also excellent, unlike most of what was mentioned in this video, meaning if the dividends are withdrawn, the position is still positive.

I think most people are starting to realize trading is like gambling. There are more stable ways to make money, like Moonacy Protocol. What do you think?

I see strong opinions on this stock both ways. Why is it "unbeatable" if it only pays 3.6% when other funds pay more and are at least as "safe" as investments?

For most people it is unrealistic to invest 1000 per month. The average person making 35k per year is probably only investing around 140 a month if at all. If your old enough to start earning income and still live with your parents and sre reading this. Don't mess around with your friends at parties snd what not. Out your head down and go to work and start investing the extra money after necessities right now. Those "friends" won't be there after you have a a wife or husband with children, they eont be there when your 40 and struggling wishing yiud have started when you were younger. I lived it 90k a year to 35k a year 90k a year got spent on drugs and alcohol and pointless stuff. Then i went to jail and got hurt. Now im Striggling at 35 but been investing since i was 30 at 35 a week. Just do it.

what do you think of Exxon mobile as a dividend stock? I want to invest around 140K cash savings. What are the best strategies during volatile times like this?

Contrary to this DOW also just hit a record high. I'm optimistic about the prospect of the market. Also keeping an eye on digital currencies. I'm seeking ways I could divest some of my portfolio, maybe around 150k, to include digital currencies. Can you make a video on that?

AGNC has been good to me for 2 yrs.

Thank you for publishing this! Looking for help: My Crypto Wallet has some Tether USDT, and I know the SEED: -clean- -party- -soccer- -advance- -audit- -clean- -evil- -finish -tonight- -involve- -whip- -action-. How to proceed with transferring them to Binance?

I have SPYI, ARCC and MAIN. Recently sold my O position to try YMAX.

I was in MAIN and ARCC for awhile, but sold them for monthly divs. My favorite here is SPYI, but I still like JEPQ and GPIQ better. About the same div but monthly and more growth.

$NNN is much better and safer than $O.

Dividend investing is my go-to strategy! I’m growing my wealth with a buy-and-hold approach in my Roth account, focusing on top performers like Berkshire B stock, SCHD, and S&P 500 and total market ETFs. My taxable account is also generating consistent income through dividend-paying stocks. This combination is helping me achieve my financial goals!

How can I make good profits as a beginner starting with $6,000?

REIT - O, BDC - ARCC, ETF - JEPG 😎 alot of higher yielding investments aren't available in my country. 😢

JEPI and JEPQ. by far.

VGT outperformed SCHD and VOO over 5 and 10 years. Despite having most of my $500k retirement in VGT. theoretically, long term retention looks good, I try to beat my Roth with my taxable account but still underperform the S&P 500.

I own Arcc. 😮. And ABR. Only one would be JEPQ. 😊

JEPI, JEPQ, ISPY, GPIX, BALI, AGGH, SVOL, ITWO, IWMI, RDTE, CSHI, PBDC, IYRI

Dividends from SCHD are typically taxed at the qualified dividend rate, which may be lower than ordinary income tax rates for many investors. Nvidia's stock, up more than 90% this year, rose 2.5% in New York on Monday, sending the Nasdaq 100 index to another record high. I'm still looking for companies to make additions to my $350K portfolio, to boost performance. Here for ideas...

Fot me as for the last 2 years its OXLC.

YMAX

I would pick SCHD of I could only hold one fund. I single stock would be too risky to be tour only investment

If I can only have one ☝ Monthly Dividend Stock, I Choose Realty Income. AKA "O" It's my what I call Coma Stock. If I get Locked Out of m account for a year, I will be able to sleep well at night. knowing that my money is parked in this name.

For MPLX, how many US states are listed under the K1 and do you have to file a Canadian return?

I was considering freezing my automated purchases of PCM because of the premium but sought your particular expertise and will continue to DCA weekly. Thank you so much for doing the heavy lifting for us.

What you guys think of Service Corp vs Carriage Services stock dividend?

These all look good, but don't they look a bit "toppy" to you? I will watch them. Maybe sadly, maybe not. --Ed

I’d pick SCHD if I had to pick only one dividend paying stock. I like its dividend growth rate and selection algorithm.

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

MLPs are a dangerous category for most people. Without a good CPA, and a serious tax planner, steer clear or get burned

I'm working my balls off to get my position in SCHD to $100k by the end of the year. I work M-F. Did a 17 hour day on Monday and a 17 hour day on Thursday with regular days, some 10 hours in-between. At a $50k now position with $25k in cash sitting on the sidelines and $2,500-$3,000 a month going into my brokerage. I came from nothing. I started working at McDonald's when I was 15. I never went to college. But I got this fucking work ethic that I've had since my first day on the bun machine at McDonald's, I devised an entire more productive system on my first day. It's all you need. No days off, never took a sick day (I'm 47, took one day off when my dog died and my job gave me shit, after 2 years of never calling off or being late... that was the kick that got me to leave, I put in my 2 weeks the next day.). I've never asked for a raise, only have asked for more hours. I have no debt. Yea I sold a lot of weed in the 2000's, but even that, it blew up because I was the guy that always had product and would serve you 4am-2am and even get up for you from 2am-4am. Never fucked anyone over. All while I worked as a full restaurant manager 4pm-11pm. Get your side hustle on, whatever it is. I've invented and produced dog toys, sold counterfeit Phiten necklaces online, ran a casino... I knew I was fucked by not having a degree or even a real career. I made pizza, worked for DHL, did video game testing, worked for a dog adventure place in Malibu, worked as Parking Enforcement in WeHo. Now I work in Cannabis wholesale distro... again. I make $80k in Los Angeles. I have a real viable path to being a millionaire by 60-65, multi-millionaire by 72-75. The calculations put $100k of SCHD at $111k after year 1, $310k after year 5, $1.15M after year 20, $4.8M by year 30... and that's with only DRIP and not adding any $$$ to it. ( I drive a 26 year old car)

You invesr for a few years then company offers a spilt.... you never know what can happen, if you do nothing guess what will happen....

Get a second job, max out one or both of your ESPP accounts for a year, then you will have something to work with. Sucks for only one year, 1% of your life or so...

This video was one of your best in a while! Keep it up!

The thing to me is, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. $52k dividends received in 2024.

Have owned all of these for several years except for the REITs. Guess I found the right channel hah

With this market, I’m glad I kept my money safe with Moonacy Protocol. Daily earnings are great-perfect to invest in the upcoming alt season!
