What You’re Getting Wrong About Dividend Investing

[@marym5770]

I think investors don’t want to ‘create’ their own dividend because it requires them to ‘kill the goose’ that is increasing their wealth. Whereas dividend investing allows the investor to maintain the goose, and still enjoy income from the goose.

Great video host and guest. Valid points raised. Everyone has different goals when it comes to investing so there's no "one size fits all" approach. After one figures out why they're investing then whatever investment style is undertaken to reach one's financial objectives is the right choice. Thanks Morning Star

There's an few issues here not addressed in that well capitalized companies that have a history and policy of growing dividends usually have maintained a solid financial focus and strong track record of responsibly managing their balance sheet and equity. Also if the company has access to credit markets where he can earn a return equal or greater on credit ( as compared to equity) then the return on its equity then they should increase dividends or buy back shares. IN other words, large but slow growing companies should be paying dividends to their shareholders unless they can document a superior return by retaining the earnings. Just my 2 cents.

The share price is unrealized potential and I don’t want to sell shares to get a payout. And there’s the risk of the share price collapsing in a recession. None of that please. If it’s a mature company, pay me some of the cashflow

Total returns are nice but if i cannot pay my monthly bills it doesnt really matter. I dont want to canablize my companies.

[@roberttaylor3594]

it seems like a dividend will effect the price, not just impact the value of the business. If a company increases it's dividend, people will buy the stock to capture the dividend, increasing the price without effecting the value of the company... I think it depends how I want your money: dribbled out monthly or quarterly, or just when I sell the stock.

Next time have a retired person living off of their dividend stocks and ETF's to give an alternate perspective on this subject. You did your audience a complete disservice by ignoring the dividend strategy used by retirees and the benefits of dividends to a retirement income.

So if divedend portfolios slightly outperform the broader market, why not just automatically reinvest the dividend to further boost the overall growth?

Dividenda in taxable brokerage account are a bad idea: tax drag, forced income impact on aca subsidiary and medicare iiirma, and dividend stocks concentrate to certain sectors. I don't know that this is a great strategy.
