Beginner's Dividend Portfolio Building Masterclass: How To Build A $40K Dividend-Paying Portfolio

[@RobertBrown..]

Diversification is the secret to optimal performance. This is why I have my interests set on market sectors based on performance and projected growth, such as the EV sector, renewable energy, Tech, and Health. Keep investing regularly and you'll be blown away how much it can change in a few short years. Here's to $1 million and to FIRE

[@SarahTaylor_]

Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert

[@EthanBrown_23]

A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.

[@trazzpalmer3199]

This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors I can get on the phone with? I'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation.

[@EthanBrown_23]

'Laurelyn Gross Pohlmeier' is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

[@danieltaylor--65]

I just googled her now and I'm really impressed with her credentials. I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.

[@ShelleyfromCali]

I run a mix. Growth in my roth and 401k. I run dividends in my Individual investment account. Seeing the payments come month after month keeps me in the zone. Works out best for me.

[@So.ladylike]

If one is in their 40s and just started investing (have 401k from work). Should they just focus on growth etf since it will be too late for them to see real benefits with dividends? I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here

[@knockoutlightz]

Unless you’re close to retirement, focus on growth not dividends.

[@MHousley]

Over the past decade since i retired, i have had SCHD drop like a rock at various times , but at 64 i still have 20% of my investments in it and have no financial worries thanks to portfolio diversification and decent asset allocations.

[@ShelleyfromCali]

I wouldn't say early 40's is 'too late' for anything related to investing. If you have at least 20 years left to put money into the market then I think growth is a nice way to lean. I think value/dividends is good to have at any age in any market. I run a mix. The best part is I still enjoy my life while I do this. Travel, and only buy things I love. Sometimes it's wise to consult with a pro F.A for the best investment style considering your situation and circumstances. I did, and over the past three years I've accumulated over ~$890k in pure profits.

[@Otis-the-III]

I’m trying to get an advisor for guidance but it’s harder than you think. Anyone who is fee-based is hard to find and usually have a heavy workload. Would you be comfortable sharing a recommendation if it’s not too much trouble

[@keithWilliams-v3x]

Its worse here, our economy is like a flailing fish, fighting for its life. The normal state of the U.S. economy is actually very bad. Because of this it goes into convulsive spasms fighting to grow any way it can out of desperation. Tricks, gimmicks, rule changes try to stimulate the economy and prevent it from falling but they only bring temporary relief to people since, when you factor in inflation we are declining.

[@Janetmartinez-i2j]

People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.

[@Markphilip-r4i]

Inflation is gradually going to become part of us and due to that fact any money you keep in cash or in a low-interest account declines in value each year. Investing is the only way to make your money grow and unless you have an exceptionally high income, investing is the only way most people will ever have enough money to retire.

[@Willi-w1q]

I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours, as I am ready to go the passive income path.!!

[@Markphilip-r4i]

I’m 24, entered the stock market 6 months ago and have been educating myself on it since. I rejoiced at having learned about covered calls, cash-secured puts, and the wheel strategy. Yesterday, I caught GME early, knowing it was a gamble, I sold a covered call, only realizing I was a fool as thousands of dollars in profit escaped me 🙃

[@travissorenson9554]

Additionally, I was quite confused when I pulled out of my position. I sold an option contract for $650, and should have earned $120 from the share appreciation. Nonetheless, when I bought back my contract and sold my shares, I only made $665. Can anyone explain this to me?

[@philipgibbons4112]

Don't worry, you still have plenty of time to have even more $$$$ escape from you........

Hi Travis. I don't like meme stocks and don't recommend owning these shares. Please make sure you have the right mindset going into the stock market. Many people lost money with GME and I'm certain they will lose money again in this next upcoming round. Please be safe, friend!

It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Charlotte Miller.

At this moment, it is crucial for individuals to prioritize investing in alternative streams of income that are not reliant on the government, particularly with the existing worldwide economic crisis. Investing in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies can still be profitable during this period. Therefore, it is advisable to explore these investment options to secure one's financial future.

[@donna_martins]

You're correct!! I make a lot of money without relying on the government. Investing in stocks and digital currencies is beneficial at this moment.

In my opinion, the impact of the rise or fall of the U.S. dollar on investments is multi-faceted but learning how to grow your money has never been easier than now that you can explore and experience a truly diverse marketplace passively by using a well-performing portfolio-advisor.

So, for example... Altria pays a high dividend yield. $4 per year, each share roughly $45. To get $40,000 in dividends I need to buy 10,000 shares so $450,000 😮. That's one of the highest dividend yields out there. Most broad market ETFs are only less than 2% so I'd need to own $2M VOO shares in order to get $40,000 dividend annually.. is that right?

Steve, first, thanks for the presentation. My question is how you can save the most in terms of capital gain tax on these dividend payments. $1500/mo rental income has way more tax advantage in the means of depreciation. Whereas, dividends income doesn't have any. Thanks again.

[@CalltoLeap]

You can invest in a tax-advantaged account, such as a Roth IRA where the dividend withdrawals will be tax and penalty free at 59.5.

[@Galileo9.81]

@CalltoLeap Delayed but true. I trade/invest via LLC entity. Will you be able to provide any advice on what I should do with any yearly income I realized so that I can minimize my tax aside from those business expense write-offs? I.e. getting myself under its payroll, etc.

I have a TSP through work. (I chuck in 15% in the C fund) I didn't know for a long time that my work has it set up as Traditional by default. I've had traditional now for like 10 years. :/ So I saw how you can't just switch it over to a Roth and at this point I probably wouldn't benefit from that too much. Hopefully I'll only have about 10 working years left. But here's my question... Is the TSP considered an IRA account since it is for retirement and has a tax shelter to it (wether it be roth or traditional) If it's not considered an IRA, could/should I open up a 2nd "retirement" account instead of using a normal brokerage investment account? Because I have my TSP and I'm running a Vanguard brokerage separately.

Hey Steve, I would like to say that I love every videos of yours. I wish I started watching your videos earlier. But I guess it's never too late (to invest) :')

[@ShaneRubin-ld3ng]

Thanks for making this video! I’d be curious to know if your trade options as part of your overall investing strategy and if you could do a video on that?

[@CalltoLeap]

I have videos on this Shane!

[@daugherty921]

Use copy trading options to leverage profit and get more familiar with investing

[@sophiabashford5389]

Please can you do a video on reits

[@CalltoLeap]

Sure! I can put this on my list.

[@rondathompson5345]

@CaltoLeap Can you make a video for creatives who freelance? Would love to hear your thoughts on best ways to invest (particularly auto invest) when your monthly income is never the same.

[@CalltoLeap]

I would find the average of your monthly income for the past 12-24 months and use that number to see how much monthly contributions you're comfortable with.

[@jorgebriceno5846]

Excellent video Steve. Looking forward to a “beyond the basics“ video. Thanks.

[@CalltoLeap]

You got it! Anything in particular you would like me to talk about?

[@jorgebriceno5846]

I’m interested in better understanding what the Order Types are, when it make sense to use “Market”, etc.

[@sh1mmy116]

You should do something on Margin in RH. Why not just use margin for dividends and earn interest on all those stocks

[@divyv20]

Hey Steve , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?

[@CalltoLeap]

I'm good. Thanks for the offer!

[@RosarioBillingsley]

You're great. A lot of you tubers explain things too fast and their screen isn't readable. I'm a tad bit older, and appreciate your excellent teaching skills. Too bad you can't tutor my 15 year old grandson. I think you mentioned that you had a "book". What's the name of it and how can I get a copy? Thanks for the video. I don't think I've heard of collecting the dividends from the stock or ETF's and investing in SPY. I try to invest in stock or ETF's that I believe in and reinvest in the same stock or ETF. I'll have to analyze your approach for myself.

[@CalltoLeap]

Thanks Rosario! This means a lot. It's good that you're showing this to your grandson so he can get a head start. My book and Money Cheat Sheet is in my description! I hope you get a lot of value from it!

[@theroyaltychannel1355]

thank you so much for Sharing ... i found your video to be very helpful ... i am a newbie and have never traded or invested in stock market ... but i am in the learning phase right now and will be taking the flight real soon ... wish i had pushed myself to learn this much sooner its just always been so intimidating ... but im very serious about changing my Financial status so off to the races we go ... i am 48 years old so i have got a lot of work to do sheesh, but i am so tired of being tired so here i am.

[@CalltoLeap]

I'm glad you're taking the first step to investing!

[@richiejj3126]

Hi! Im 25 years old. I am holding 50k of VUG and 50k of SCHD. Both adds up to 100k. Is it good enough for my long term investments? Thank You

[@CalltoLeap]

I like both ETFs since they consist of large cap S&P 500 components. You want to make sure you're comfortable with investing in them and the companies within these ETFs.

[@adaortiz9784]

Loved how simple and clear your presentation was. Do you have a presentation in Options?

[@CalltoLeap]

Hi Ada! Yep! You can check out my channel. :)

[@adaortiz9784]

Yes! I am viewing the videos you have posted in both KZbin and Facebook. I’m interested in Coaching please. I have sent you an email. Thanks 🙏🏽 Ada

[@AustenVelardeTV]

you dont think yield max are good for income? ymax, nvdy, msty? by the time they really zero out youll have made your money back plus some

[@stompy116]

A part I don't understand with the DCA approach is if you only have 20, 50, maybe even 100 to put in per month, what if that isn't enough to buy a share so you just hang on to it to the next month? I know with my investing platform it doesn't allow me to purchase partial shares and certain companies have minimum investment amounts

[@daugherty921]

It depends on the platform you're using to invest, which platform are you using?

[@slytactraining]

Can we continue to buy shares if we put in 7k already in Roth IRA? That part I don’t understand.

[@TristianWatson]

seeing people in their elderly years begging for your help makes me think im actually super ahead of my time but in a generation where i only see people younger than me winning but im 26, i think meme coins are insane and this next bull market for crypto made me think of dividends from profits from crypto. i going to have at least 100k a year from dividends, waste management is the most op one there is bc as long as theres humans you get paid essentially lmao

[@Cog-pd3qn]

I am with you on everything. Like I am subscribed to the message. But this still isn’t compound interest. DRIP isn’t going to give you 10% on average like the S&P, you said it yourself- you get just a small amount per share. Reinvesting would mean paying capital gains tax. And then of course taking the dividends as income won’t get you compounded.

[@Prodigyautodetailing]

Loving your videos and your so honest do you have a video with trailing the stop loss and other 2nd half of this video tag me in it please!

[@anthonyvidaurreta9479]

What are the top 3 dividend etf or companies to invest in long term?

[@CalltoLeap]

For me, I like SPY, QQQ, and SCHD. This is what I'm comfortable with.

[@judithsanderson1375]

I asked all my friends and families to look at your videos especially my 2 sons

[@CalltoLeap]

Awesome! Thanks Judith!

[@Elyrion4409]

Thanks for the video! Quick question, why would you invest in a dividend stock right now with a dividend yield of 3% (SCHD) when you could put money in a high yield savings account that pays back more than 5%?

[@poupeth1]

New subscriber here,Steve. Lots of gems here in this video. Thanks so much.

[@bradleyredmond7850]

For someone starting to invest at around 50 years of age, do you recommend investing in growth or dividend etfs? Excellent into to dividend investing by the way.

[@CalltoLeap]

Hi Bradley! For me, I would choose more dividend-paying assets. However, choose what you're most comfortable.

[@daugherty921]

Hi Bradley, Start contributing to a stable etf asset with monthly compounding 1% dividends.

[@amyhoang9140]

Beautifully explained. Thank you.

[@jameschan4994]

Really nice and easy to understand video! Can you do a video on what you do to research what index funds or shares to invest in please?

[@CalltoLeap]

Thanks James! Yes! I can make a video on this!

[@Escadamode]

Where does the monthly dividend payout out go? Directly back into your investment?

[@Ronnie15369]

Hi, to make sure I understand if I put 250 biwkly into SCHD I should build that inside of my rota Ira to grow tax free but create a separate account or should I create a second roth Ira that's a divided only portfolio. Thanks,Rhonda.

[@CalltoLeap]

You can invest in a Roth IRA first to get the tax advantages. After that, you can invest in your IBA (individual brokerage account). I talked about the order of operations of the 5 main accounts people should have in another video. Hope this helps!

[@ZacharySec]

@CalltoLeap i opened a SoFi savings acct, and in order to enjoy the 4.xx interest it mentions a 5000/month required deposit each month. Is this standard? I suppose directly depositing my paychecks would be best.

[@CalltoLeap]

You can look into other ones, like UFB Direct and AMEX. I have links in my description!
