Thank you for the feedback and glad you enjoyed it!

Ha. I did very well with IBIT thank you very much. That said, Bitcoin doesn’t fit my investing style. I am in it for income

@@richardbudzic6289 I noticed it was fast too when I viewed it after launch, sorry about that. Must have happened somewhere with the recording tool. Thanks for watching, I will make sure it is fixed before the next video.

What do you mean?

I don’t have any immediate thoughts but I will put something together on this topic. Thanks!

@@DividendStockpile Thanks! Looking forward to it.

@@AIModelLabs I am adding a small amount each week. 🤝

Thanks Lance. ARE is a good one!

Thanks for the video. I’m in my mid fifties so I look for higher starting yields but I do appreciate the approach.

@ makes sense! Your timeline should dictate your yield choices. What are some of your favs? For high yield real estate I like RFI.

@@PieterDaniell what did you think?

Thanks for watching! Here is my CEF playlist if you want to learn more: ruclips.net/p/PL7UyeJHXWXCPhUAwIpc1CEe9BDMRBLLB0&si=CPUwIp8di34_-1DM

Thanks Russ!

Thanks as always. The yield in pocket would still be the 8.89 and 7.10%. The yield is after all fees.

@ thank you very much Jeremy. Appreciate you and your channel.

@@blackfiree91 how do you figure that?

@ Sir you picked stocks you “like” because whatever reason. Thats random stock picking and you will underperform the market over the long term Do whatever you want - your money

@@blackfiree91 I picked what I think are the best in each sector. No one knows the future. How do you invest?

@@DividendStockpile Depends on the portfolio needs. If you don't need current income and have 20 years until retirement, Total World Index funds. Capture it all. Accept market returns and focus on earning more to contribute more. IF you need current Income, individual stocks are too risky and provide no protection to capital. What if the CEO gets killed in a plane crash. What if the investor can't stomach the volatility and sells at a 50% loss..... Better to just hold an index funds paying yield OR closed end funds capturing the whole market while paying distributions consistently every month as they have for decades.

Thanks for watching! It is a very powerful approach for income investors. Great thing is there are many ways to win.

@@arniet5257 thank you. Glad you liked it!

My take is that he takes the cash, and then decides what to do with it. Some he reinvests and others is for living expenses

@@DividendStockpile I am reading his book now it is very helpful. Thanks for an informative channel.

You may not have access to CEFs on that brokerage platform. It looks like it is non-US based.

@@DividendStockpile ok thanks!

Thanks Colby. Always happy to help talk through anything with you. 🤝

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I agree. If the returns are what matters. If the yield and total return meets your goals, it doesn’t matter what they charge.

Any you can share? I think my best has been UTG this year

@@brianroose7734 great job!

I have not seen that personally. Do you have any examples that I can dig into?

@@DividendStockpile tons out there - FAX abrdn Asia-Pacific Income Fund Inc

@@DividendStockpile BST during the 2020-2022 bubble like many other CEFs

you need to do a 5 year look back and set an alert to buy in with a "margin" of safety or you need to actively trade these within the yearly "cycles"

Steve’s commented that CEFs are more sensitive to interest rates than the overall stock market. Many BlackRock CEFs, including BST, hold a large number of private companies which usually have to borrow to grow. Also, shares of private companies increase in value through spin-offs, mergers/acquisitions, and IPOs, all of which are stymied by higher interest rates.

He explains his process in detail in the book but yes, it is a more active strategy. I do more buy and hold with the occasional swap out of funds. I need to read the Income Factory, I have heard good things about his approach. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@DividendStockpile Sounds like you would enjoy Bavaria's book - build the factory and let it produce. It focuses more on investing in credit - betting the horse will finish the race as opposed to winning the race. If you watch a few long-form interviews with him you will get all of the main points. Thanks again for a great interview with Selengut today.

I have had that internal debate also. Remember that the ETFs hold the underlying stocks in those various indexes so you get the exposure to those companies in it. If I was to get rid of one I would drop IWMI personally but for now I own all three too.

Thanks John. Very good choices!

OZK doesn’t get enough love.

@@TheDGICrabI agree! Their dividend growth has been amazing

Great chart!

@@brianlester4494 thanks!

That is a great approach and very important. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much and thanks for taking time to comment.

Thanks for watching and taking time to comment. Do you have any tender offers you are considering?

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the suggestion!

No. For puts, you need the cash in your account (or margin) to cover the strike price x 100 shares. If you already own the shares you just do the calls

@@DividendStockpile Okay thank you very much for the clarity

Thank you so much! I am loving Spyi, qqqi, and IWMI as well and have made them a substantial % of my income portfolios

Thank you!

Thank you very much! From all I have read it will not be tax advantaged like the other funds. The other funds utilize index options to get the 60/40 tax implications but this one does options on individual ETFs so they don’t get that tax benefit

I am a big fan too, but am undecided on this particular fund. I may wait to see a couple more months of distributions first. Thanks for watching!

Only been a few days now!

Thanks so much! Yea, I really like their approach. Have you viewed my interview with their co-founder?

@@DividendStockpile Yes, that was the first video I watched of yours. Keep up the good work 👍

It is very intriguing for sure!

O is great but their dividend growth is a little too low for me.

@@MichelleSaenz-p1f thanks Michelle! It is a steady, rational approach to wealth. You won’t get wealthy quickly, but the ride to wealth will be smoother.

Thanks as always. ARE gets a bad rap as it is an office reit but it is such a specialized niche that there is solid long term demand

It is about a 14% allocation.

What other income producing stocks/sectors do you own ?

@@DividendStockpile That's less than I expected!

@@jasondiclemente8007I limit each sector to 15% allocation for diversification purposes

@@Lawyerup904I have dividend stocks, dividend ETFs, income ETFs, closed end funds, and write options for income
