This year I will make more money on dividends than I did as my starting gross pay on my current job. I know this does not account for inflation but its still an accomplishment.
Some dividend yields are looking very attractive already. Make sure they have low dividend payout ratios and extremely great cash flow. Much success to all. My garden of stocks is doing really well.

I started investing in the stock market because of dividends. In my opinion, it is important to note that if you invest and make more money on top of your dividends, then you will be able to live off the dividends without selling them. This means you can pass that money on to your children to give them a good start in life. Over the years, I've invested more than $600,000 in dividend stocks; I continue to buy more today and will continue to do so until the price moves further down.

As Chris said, "Growth" companies usually don't pay dividends, because they reinvest their profits in the company to help it grow. Companies can grow so much that there is not much more that they can do, so they don't need to reinvest their profits, so they distribute them as dividends. These companies are one form of a "Value" company. Value stocks, historically, have not been as volatile as Growth stocks.
I have Tesla as my main growth stock, and pick others that have dipped and positioned to bounce back. My other post ions are dividend etfs and dividend stocks.
As an aside, while paying dividends are a good utilization of a company's money if that company has no better use for it, it is often said that stock buybacks are a better utilization of capital when the stock is undervalued. As a counter argument to this I've heard that stock buybacks are often used to artificially boost the stock price so internal shareholders can sell out to realize a profit before buying back in cheaper, thus creating no additional value for long term shareholders despite that this is the supposed benefit repeatedly touted to shareholders. How much truth and how widespread is this alleged skulduggery?
The greater the automated income you can build, the freer you will become. Taking the first step is the hardest, but 5 houses later living off automated income since July 6, 2016. You’ve got to start taking steps to achieve your goal.
Im fully retired at 59 and currently living off a small defined pension supplemented with $3100 a month in dividends. Waiting a few more years to collect my max SS at 70. Ive been investing since 1987, thanks to the movie Wall Street. Keep investing in good dividend paying companies.
Why not go for a few ETFs that have low expenses and making you less depending on a single company or handful companies. If you mix a dividend etf with a s&p500 etf you get capital gains and dividends.
you can miss out on huge rapid gains, it’s all your personal preference sure you can play it safe and boring but some of us want to see +1,000 on our accounts in a day
@ToothlesstheNightFury510 only take the risks you can carry. The money I invest in the stock market is not my gamble money. It is money I can spare now, but might need in 35 years.
@Chrisinvests I have been investing for a few years, and dividend stocks are my favorite. Low barrier to entry and can snowball. It makes you change your outlook on paying interest compared to earning interest. Love the content!
Just playing devil’s advocate, but as you said, dividends are paid from the company’s earnings (hopefully and not debt). So the only difference between a dividend and non-dividend stock is that the non-dividend stock’s managers felt that they had better use to reinvest the earnings. Which would signal more growth in the future. Not saying dividend stocks aren’t bad. But companies that reinvest into themselves usually have more upside.
More and more US companies are opting to use stock buy backs as a way to distribute gains to shareholders. They are considered more flexible by management and owners aren’t forced a tax event. If you only target dividend stocks you will miss out on a large portion of growth in the market.

@@ToothlesstheNightFury510 That's the other type of Value stock -- a stock that is temporarily out of favor.
Take a shot everytime he says dividends

Dividend income is nice and if done correctly it's taxed less than your work income
Diversification is very important
My favorite part about dividend investing is the compound interest that accumulates and snowballs one's portfolio over time. Great video Chris!

I have hit $1500 in passive dividend income per year - my goal is to have $2000 by the end of this year. I know it's not a ton, but it's a start!
Not bad at all! 👍
