I like investing in close-end funds that pay monthly dividends. The trick is to hold long term and reinvest the monthly dividends plus buy more shares on a monthly basis or when ever you can afford to. This can be easily done because close-end funds are bought and sold on the stock market just like regular stock. That’d be enough to create a portfolio that would pay you between $50k to $70k in dividend income

Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.

This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.

I have never understood the fascination of monthly dividends. I guess monthly doesn't hurt, except for some monthly ETFs that charge a higher management fee. But if you have the financial discipline to build up a portfolio that you can live off, you should be able to manage quarterly income.
@VisionQuest0574 ай бұрын
Ugh, quarterly income. Gross. It's fine if you're still building wealth via DRIP and don't need the money, but once I'm living on dividends I want my paychecks every two weeks just like having a job, so I invest solely in monthly-paying names and have my capital split roughly 50/50 between funds that pay at the end of the month and funds that pay at the beginning of the month.
@mfinite6894 ай бұрын
A lot of the higher yielders are monthly payers, so that attracts a lot of people who are just starting out. I don't think it's as much about discipline; more like monthly income is easier to visualize. "Here's what my bills add up to in a month, so here's what I need these tickers to pay in a month." I look at the management fee as a moot point. What matters to me is how much money I have to put up and how much money I can expect on a regular basis. I make my decisions off of that information, not what percentage some fund manager is keeping. You could also make the argument that quarterly payments are antiquated in 2024. We see that the technology exists to make monthly (and weekly) distributions, so why should those companies only make quarterly payments? Just because that's always how it's been doesn't mean it should always stay that way. A lot can also change in a quarter. How many dividend kings have we lost in the last two years? You've been waiting 3 months for that Intel payment and whoops, you're not getting one now. Not much of an issue with a diversified portfolio, but if something is going to impact the money that comes in, I'd rather know sooner than later.
@hansschotterradler37724 ай бұрын
@@mfinite689 I read about people starting out investing and go for high-yielder. Not necessarily the smartest choice for those youngsters. INTC cutting the dividend was the right move.
