Investing for INCOME with Armchair Income - Retire with a monthly Paycheck!

[@armchairincomechannel]

Dave, thanks for the opportunity to discuss income investing. I'm a big fan of your channel, and it was a great experience to chat with you!

[@wealthadventures]

Thanks for coming on! Appreciate the insights. Someday maybe I will try this retirement thing out... 🤔

[@dberry256]

It was great to watch you two! It is very encouraging seeing others succeed doing what I am working toward!! Thanks!

[@rashidalromaithi964]

Thank you very much for the details. I'm happy to see you here. I will gladly join your channel to educate myself more.

[@JustAnotherPersonHere]

[@dandans9060]

Great interview, I subscribe to both , if I add these sort of funds say Jepq and put it into a Roth , will I have to pay taxes when I pull because they are non qualified distributions even though it’s a Roth or does Roth tax free no matter

[@Couchlnvestor]

I own SCHD. I also own individual stocks that I collect dividends and sell covered calls on.

[@MHousley]

Keep it going! I am at 2.25 mil. Biggest positions VOO, VTI, SCHD, VYM, and now looking to build up DRGO. I got $48,800 divs last year in taxable divs. Q2 taxable divs this year was $17,388 this year. I still have 5 years or so until retirement and I sleep well at night.

[@JoeCoIIar]

SCHD has one year return about 3.5%, plus the 3.5 yield. Very underwhelming. Let me help you. JEPQ, JEPI, SVOL. You're welcome.

[@MHousley]

I like my money, like diabetes slow and steady! I am already retired and lucky for me, my F.A believes in investing for income. So I do have a check coming every month, my draw on my dividends.

[@barbborstein7640]

Hi, I am trying to get an advisor for guidance but it's harder than you think. I am a doctor and the field of finance is not that close to me so far, but I am eager to bridge that gap. Starting with ETFs is my goal but with so many to pick from it's confusing the majority of the time. Do you know if your advisor is willing to consult with clients in other geographical areas?

[@MHousley]

Oh very well then, conducting due diligence on *Lina Dineikeine* should suffice. She has established a notable reputation over time, and her system is acclaimed for its outstanding quality. Good woman!

[@DonaldMark-ne7se]

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 2022.

[@JacquelinePerrira]

I agree! That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.

[@Jamessmith-12]

The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

[@kevinmarten]

please who is the consultant that assist you with your investment and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with them?

[@Jamessmith-12]

'Carol Vivian Constable, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.

[@kevinmarten]

She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.

[@ChristopherAnthony-9]

I believe the retirement crisis will get even worse. Many struggle to save due to low wages, rising prices, and exorbitant rents. With homeownership becoming unattainable for middle-class Americans, they may not have a home to rely on for retirement either.

[@chideraatuba9455]

Got it! Buying stocks during a recession when prices are down could be a good move. You might get them at a lower price and sell later when they go up. Just do your homework and be aware of the risks before diving in!

[@NancyBetty-x]

@@chideraatuba9455 That's awesome! Investing in stocks with a reliable trading system can lead to great outcomes. It's fantastic that you've been working with a financial advisor for a year now. Starting with less than $200K and being just $19,000 away from making half a million in profit is impressive! Keep up the good work!

Armchair Income and Income Factory are my two favorite sources. I am a retired 85 year old and enjoy trading monthly using the NAV trends. Like Armchair Income I use dividends for current income and the remainder for reinvesting.

[@john00123]

I must say I love dividend investing, getting those payments in for just holding a company is amazing. from what I've witnessed it all comes down to having a Licensed investment Adviser to handle your portfolio. All thanks to my Investment Adviser, who has traded my savings daily from quarter a million to almost one million dollars in the last 3 months.❤✅

I still do have a smaller percentage of growth funds too, but the income % is the largest section of my portfolio. I am also retired and the methodology has worked for me.

If we gave OSCARS on KZbin this one may win Best Picture. As an income investor seeing two of my favorite people to watch on the same video was a real treat. Follow both of you guys regularly and being retired 11 years learning to be an income investor has been a real learning experience. As income investing grows in popularity new ETF's are showing up almost faster than you can analyze them.

[@Steverino70]

Great interview. I probably watch Armchair more than anyone else because we are both retired doing exactly the same thing. I would also recommend your channel and dividend bull. Yes, I no long get the occasional 1.0 to 1.4 million gain in one year. I also avoid the 500K+ losses. However, after income investing for 3 years I am approaching a 7 figure income, even if the general market doesn't gain a dime. My hope is the "snowball" will keep me out of "-" years as in theory it will act as a buffer in down markets. We'll see about that. I have learned to stay humble:) Thanks Dave...

Great tutorial on Income investing! I switched from value to income investing about 3 years ago with the help of Armchair and Dividend Bull. The income has really snowballed and I am totally happy with the results. Selling your holdings to fund your retirement creates a lot of stress and uncertainty. With steady dividend income, however, you know exactly how much funds are coming in and hopefully, you can build up your portfolio to the point where you won't have to sell anything in the retirement years

[@wealthadventures]

Thanks and congrats! Glad it is working.

[@TotallyRegWhatelse]

Hope you are aware of the impact of interest rates: *BDCs* benefit of rising/relatively high interest rates. On the contrary *MLPs, Preferred Socks, REITs* benefit of declinig/low interest rates. *CEF* and *ETF with option overlay* (from simple calls/puts to complex option strategies) need a closer look.

2 of my favorites. I'm going for an income/dividend growth hybrid. Armchair Income is smart enough to reinvest a portion of his income to ensure income growth. This seems to be working during "normal" market condition. But I wonder how his strategy would work in an extended bear market (tech bubble, GFC, etc.)? I'm expecting income reduction even with my hybrid approach.

[@unclelong213]

during a bear market doesnt matter what you invest into, it will dip, so does it actually matter? for me, just keep DCA its way out. lol

[@wealthadventures]

Good question... It would depend on the ETFs sustaining there distribution levels. I would suspect many would reduce and recovery would likely be slower versus growth. The pandemic is probably a poor comparison since it was short but Armchair did say his products held up well during that time.

[@2coryman]

I choose tech, AI ETFs these days expecting them to be productive for the next 10 years more or less, but keep watching their trends, I like IONQ, XLK, QQQM, PLTR, AIMD, but I’m ready at any moment if needed to replace them with SCHD and SCHG, DGRO

[@lucindakloman7311]

Total return is always going to benefit you in the long run. If the value of one of your holdings goes up significantly, you can sell some of the stock. It's taxable, just like your dividends are (unless within a Roth). I would never give up total return for a smaller total return but with income. It just doesn't make sense.

[@wealthadventures]

I agree. Total return should be our primary driver. However, in retirement, giving up some gains for a more consistent return is quite attractive to many investors. Often just depends on your risk profile.

[@AmeriGlobal]

SPYI, JEPQ, PBDC, PFFA

[@kf434]

yes, but I keep getting mixed answers on this. other people say because its based on options, as long as the NAV doesn’t tank too much, if volatility is high, they can still maintain the distribution

[@aftabkrishna7274]

Thank you both for sharing a great conversation! Other than funds expense ratio, does brokerage company, such as Vanguard, Fidelity, Schwab’s charge any kind of fee to purchase any of his suggested funds ? Thanks.

[@wealthadventures]

Fidelity and Etrade do not. Most have gone away from those types of fees but always good to check.

[@ContrarianExpatriate]

Not sure why one would have BDCS and REITs because they only produce ordinary dividends which are taxed higher. Also, why not just invest in the S&P 500 and shave off long term capital gains to pay bills?

[@wealthadventures]

I tend to agree but he has decided to really focus on the income side of things. He is also in retirement so he is likely in a lower tax bracket.

this works if u already have the capital. At 11% return u need a cool million to get 110k before taxes. If u have that is ok otherwise i prefer to be active and look for 20 % a year to grow.

Higher return higher risk! If you don't have a large account can you take higher risks?

@@wealthadventures it the other way around. If you don’t have a big account you have to risk more so you can grow it. If i reach my capital target (1.5 to 2 mil) then i can cruise and the strategy presented in the vlog will be fine.
