Diversification is the secret to optimal performance. This is why I have my interests set on market sectors based on performance and projected growth, such as the EV sector, renewable energy, Tech, and Health. Keep investing regularly and you'll be blown away how much it can change in a few short years. Here's to $1 million and to FIRE
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors I can get on the phone with? I'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation.
'Laurelyn Gross Pohlmeier' is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
At this moment, it is crucial for individuals to prioritize investing in alternative streams of income that are not reliant on the government, particularly with the existing worldwide economic crisis. Investing in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies can still be profitable during this period. Therefore, it is advisable to explore these investment options to secure one's financial future.
In my opinion, the impact of the rise or fall of the U.S. dollar on investments is multi-faceted but learning how to grow your money has never been easier than now that you can explore and experience a truly diverse marketplace passively by using a well-performing portfolio-advisor.
I diversified my $400K portfolio across multiple market with the aid of an investment advisor, I have been able to generate over $900k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds in few months.
Finding financial advisors like Vivian Jean Wilhelm who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
I run a mix. Growth in my roth and 401k. I run dividends in my Individual investment account. Seeing the payments come month after month keeps me in the zone. Works out best for me.
If one is in their 40s and just started investing (have 401k from work). Should they just focus on growth etf since it will be too late for them to see real benefits with dividends? I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here
Over the past decade since i retired, i have had SCHD drop like a rock at various times , but at 64 i still have 20% of my investments in it and have no financial worries thanks to portfolio diversification and decent asset allocations.
I wouldn't say early 40's is 'too late' for anything related to investing. If you have at least 20 years left to put money into the market then I think growth is a nice way to lean. I think value/dividends is good to have at any age in any market. I run a mix. The best part is I still enjoy my life while I do this. Travel, and only buy things I love. Sometimes it's wise to consult with a pro F.A for the best investment style considering your situation and circumstances. I did, and over the past three years I've accumulated over ~$890k in pure profits.
I’m trying to get an advisor for guidance but it’s harder than you think. Anyone who is fee-based is hard to find and usually have a heavy workload. Would you be comfortable sharing a recommendation if it’s not too much trouble
Great video again Steve! I'm celebrating a $600K Dividend portfolio today. I went all in with about $150,000. Have invested much time and money into this. I am also with the right Investment Advisor, who handles my portfolio and executes my trades. Now I have steady dividend income and time for my family as well❤✅
Amazing! I have Liquid $150K to put into stocks, but I want to ensure good profits & safety. With tons of Advisors now, how did you find the right Investment Advisory?
WOOW !! Essmildaa Morgan is finally getting the popularity she deserves and this docent come as a surprise. my favorite stocks She invest in are Amazon,Walmart, TELSA and currently, Crowdstrike.
Its worse here, our economy is like a flailing fish, fighting for its life. The normal state of the U.S. economy is actually very bad. Because of this it goes into convulsive spasms fighting to grow any way it can out of desperation. Tricks, gimmicks, rule changes try to stimulate the economy and prevent it from falling but they only bring temporary relief to people since, when you factor in inflation we are declining.
People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.
Inflation is gradually going to become part of us and due to that fact any money you keep in cash or in a low-interest account declines in value each year. Investing is the only way to make your money grow and unless you have an exceptionally high income, investing is the only way most people will ever have enough money to retire.
I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours, as I am ready to go the passive income path.!!

Listen to this guy. I did and over the past 3 years I have invested just under $100K into dividend stocks. I'm getting $850 a month in dividends that I will continue to reinvest until I retire.
I came across this page and I am blown away. I turned 50 in January. Totally at a loss on how to start. Overwhelmed is an understatement. Needless to say, I have subscribed.
OMG! Your explanation and the visual step-by-step are amazing! I am 42 years old and did not even know where and how to start. I’ve hear about investing for years, but did not know where to even start. I’m am going to open an account this weekend and start investing. Thank you very much!!! More videos like this, please 😊!
Thanks so much. I just wish I learn about this when I was in my 20s. I am trying to convince my husband to invest too. Thanks for teaching us and helping us be educated in investing. I appreciate your help
I have to say you are pretty amazing! I congratulate you to have so easy and clear vídeos. Even though I’m in my 60’s , I learning everday and forward this info to my friends and family. Thank you,Steve
Steve, many thanks to you for one more amazing video. Please share how to know which company does pay dividends and which does not? Where to check this info?
Excellent video for beginners. Starting out as a newbie can be tricky, and overwhelming, but the Call to Leap videos are done in a very approachable manner, without being stuffy, and cold.
@@CalltoLeapYou confidently and gently explain step by step in a palatable way how to start and continuously invest. You break things down in a very understandable format. It's greatly appreciated
You have given me a better understanding. A lot of people don't explain the part of investing every month. I am a good saver and patient, but I want to have more investments.
@@panamaruby9256 me too. At first I thought I would get extra money by being an active buyer and seller of stocks. But it’s more about having a habit of buying consistent, over time, into the right growth fund. Buy when the market is going up. Buy when the market is going down. In the long run you will unlock the value of investing.
I love this kid! ❤. Any chance you could do a video for those of us who are older (50’s) and just getting started in investing? I don’t have 40 years lol, but maybe 10 - 20. Thanks bro! 😎
@@CalltoLeapLearning from you..I am about to start. Late, but hey..I am hopeful with your guidance I will do good like you. I'm 56 and need to work on this aggressively. Thank you for all your videos, posts, and your humble and sweet personality. God bless you!
I loved this video. I never saw any of your content before it was very digestible and I am beyond beginner level. I’m very grateful for your knowledge, thank you.
Thank you for doing these very education videos. I'm in my late 50's and found this to be very helpful. You break things down in a way that is very easy to understand! Keep them coming!
I Truly Thank God for you! You are so thorough and detailed.. Thank you so much for helping me to understand all these terms. I feel so much more confident about what to do with my money.😇
Because of you I opened a high yield saving account, Roth IRA and a brokerage account. I'm in my late 50s. Boy I wish I found you much sooner. I'm working on selling covered calls now. This is a big step for me. Thank you so much Steve!
I have Fidelity, can I buy VTI there ? Thank you so much for this video. You make it so easy to understand. Once a teacher, always a teacher. But a rich teacher. 😊
I’m 24, entered the stock market 6 months ago and have been educating myself on it since. I rejoiced at having learned about covered calls, cash-secured puts, and the wheel strategy. Yesterday, I caught GME early, knowing it was a gamble, I sold a covered call, only realizing I was a fool as thousands of dollars in profit escaped me 🙃
Additionally, I was quite confused when I pulled out of my position. I sold an option contract for $650, and should have earned $120 from the share appreciation. Nonetheless, when I bought back my contract and sold my shares, I only made $665. Can anyone explain this to me?
Hi Travis. I don't like meme stocks and don't recommend owning these shares. Please make sure you have the right mindset going into the stock market. Many people lost money with GME and I'm certain they will lose money again in this next upcoming round. Please be safe, friend!
Thank you so much for starting these lessons f try I’m the beginning and gradually and strategically introduce more information. All of your videos are very helpful! Keep them coming!
I applaud you for sharing your knowledge publicly,I learned a lot from you ,I know at my age its not too late to invest once again thank you. Where can I avail your book
Bro you're a humble dude man keep helping people buddy there's not many people like you no more most youngsters are only gold diggers specially females they won't move a finger to help anybody basically the only love you if you have money
1. I need to open a brokerage account right? This video is for a brokerage account right? 2. When we get the dividend? How do taxes come into play? Should we save a percentage of the dividends? 3. Can you make a video on how to open a brokerage account and how one should prepare themselves with taxes and dividends?
May you teach people who are over 50 about investing? We are late to the game, but should we invest in dividends, stocks, etc., to build wealth? Thank you so much.
Question: For the DRIP method, if the dividend is only fractional to the share price in the beginning, what will happen? Thanks for the well explained video for beginners. We're often impatient to growing rich slowly.
Hey Steve, I would like to say that I love every videos of yours. I wish I started watching your videos earlier. But I guess it's never too late (to invest) :')
You’re phenomenal, Steve. You are great at explaining things simply and clearly. I’ve only been investing for a few years, so I appreciate how you teach. Thank you!
Hi Steve, I like watching your videos. So informative and done intelligently. What videos would you recommend for viewers over 50 who would like to build more portfolio?
Thanks Lucy! They are pretty similar since they both track the S&P 500. If you want to sell covered calls later, you can consider choosing VOO since it's option-able. But see what works for you!
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states also paid for my son's surgery (oscar). Glory to God.shalom..
Very good information Steve. You have a gift because your explanations are soo clear cut even a beginner can understand. I'd up vote you 1000x if i could.
I like this video! Very simple for beginners to learn from, I am just in my first month of investing and pretty excited for the long-term profits and financial freedom. I may suggest this video to some friends too.
Good video/presentation. Keep up your good work encouraging new (younger) persons to get involved in investing: for their future. Also, continuing self education!
Thanks for providing such valuable information! I'm just beginning my journey, and I appreciate the insights you've shared. I recall you mentioning a budgeting sheet in your video, but I haven't been able to locate it in the description. Could you please confirm if it's included in one of the other links provided? Thanks again!
I am with you on everything. Like I am subscribed to the message. But this still isn’t compound interest. DRIP isn’t going to give you 10% on average like the S&P, you said it yourself- you get just a small amount per share. Reinvesting would mean paying capital gains tax. And then of course taking the dividends as income won’t get you compounded.
Thanks for an informative video. For a follow-up, what types of companies and dividends are suitable for taxable and tax-advantaged accounts would be helpful.
thank you so much for Sharing ... i found your video to be very helpful ... i am a newbie and have never traded or invested in stock market ... but i am in the learning phase right now and will be taking the flight real soon ... wish i had pushed myself to learn this much sooner its just always been so intimidating ... but im very serious about changing my Financial status so off to the races we go ... i am 48 years old so i have got a lot of work to do sheesh, but i am so tired of being tired so here i am.
So, for example... Altria pays a high dividend yield. $4 per year, each share roughly $45. To get $40,000 in dividends I need to buy 10,000 shares so $450,000 😮. That's one of the highest dividend yields out there. Most broad market ETFs are only less than 2% so I'd need to own $2M VOO shares in order to get $40,000 dividend annually.. is that right?
Thanks for the video! Quick question, why would you invest in a dividend stock right now with a dividend yield of 3% (SCHD) when you could put money in a high yield savings account that pays back more than 5%?
Steve, first, thanks for the presentation. My question is how you can save the most in terms of capital gain tax on these dividend payments. $1500/mo rental income has way more tax advantage in the means of depreciation. Whereas, dividends income doesn't have any. Thanks again.
@CalltoLeap Delayed but true. I trade/invest via LLC entity. Will you be able to provide any advice on what I should do with any yearly income I realized so that I can minimize my tax aside from those business expense write-offs? I.e. getting myself under its payroll, etc.
A part I don't understand with the DCA approach is if you only have 20, 50, maybe even 100 to put in per month, what if that isn't enough to buy a share so you just hang on to it to the next month? I know with my investing platform it doesn't allow me to purchase partial shares and certain companies have minimum investment amounts
I also heard about investing in Life insurance that also pay dividens and is tax free. You can also borrow against your policy etc. It’s another way to invest. What is your thought? Thank you.
Hi, Steve. I am a Singaporean, resident in Malaysia. Great video. I am planning to start learning how to start trading..I find your video to be informative. Thank you
I’ve been using an advisor. Have a good amount in retirement. About 8-10 years from retirement. Thinking of taking control and self managing, do you have a suggestion if I should just convert to just a few funds? That pay dividends? Instead of all the different funds I’m in now? I’d be happy with 50-60 k dividends and I can still work part time for extra money. What portfolio would you use and how much total funds would I need to make that happen? Seeing if I have enough or how much more I need to aggressively save.
Thank you for t he great video and. well explined. I've learn a lot from your videos Steve your a great teacher. You give me confidence in investing an let grow my portafolio in the long run. Thank you againg and God Bless...🙏✌
If I were to talk to my younger 20 year old self, I'd probably stick with the basics. (1) S&P 500, (2) Growth, and (3) Dividend-Paying I personally like SPY, QQQ, and SCHD. However, you can invest in what you're most comfortable with.

Of course! I have a video for 40 and 50 year olds on my channel. I hope it helps, Ruth!
+1000 points for the Enceladus poster in the back 🌑🌟
Found your channel today and thoroughly enjoyed the video. Thamk you for the grat content.
Question: For the DRIP method, if the dividend is only fractional to the share price in the beginning, what will happen? Thanks for the well explained video for beginners. We're often impatient to growing rich slowly.
Where does the monthly dividend payout out go? Directly back into your investment?
This was awesome ! Thank you 😊
Thank you so much ! I’m beginner! Could I buy only SCHD for long term?
Hey Steve, I would like to say that I love every videos of yours. I wish I started watching your videos earlier. But I guess it's never too late (to invest) :')
Steve can you make a video & explain what is Gross expense ratio and Net expense ratio? And is that something we need to look at when investing ?
Sure! I can put this on my list!
You’re phenomenal, Steve.
You are great at explaining things simply and clearly. I’ve only been investing for a few years, so I appreciate how you teach.
Thank you!
Aw, thank you! This means a lot to me!
Loving your videos and your so honest do you have a video with trailing the stop loss and other 2nd half of this video tag me in it please!
Hi Steve, I like watching your videos. So informative and done intelligently. What videos would you recommend for viewers over 50 who would like to build more portfolio?
Hi Fem! Thanks for the encouraging words! I actually made a video on this topic a couple of months ago! Feel free to check it out!
Hi there, Start contributing to a stable etf asset with monthly compounding 1% dividends.
Great explanation you made it very clear easy to understand 🙏❤
Love your videos. Keep up the good work! 😊
Thanks Belle!
Voo or fxaix? Aren’t they the same? Which one to purchase? Thank you!! And thanks for all the good information!! Subscribed. 😊
Thanks Lucy! They are pretty similar since they both track the S&P 500. If you want to sell covered calls later, you can consider choosing VOO since it's option-able. But see what works for you!
Thank you!
If I have 70k, what should % I buy for my portfolio? Please help me some advice thank you so much
I'm interested in investing, but I'm not sure where to start. Do you have any advice or contact who can help me out?
Congratulations, do you mind sharing how you did it.
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Gillian sara ) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her from Brisbane Australia
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states also paid for my son's surgery (oscar). Glory to God.shalom..
How
..? Am a newbie in crypto investment, please can you guide me through on how you made profit?
Bot comments.
Very good information Steve. You have a gift because your explanations are soo clear cut even a beginner can understand. I'd up vote you 1000x if i could.
Aw thanks Drews! I want to upvote your comment by 1000x too. Haha.
Can you do a video on how to handle taxes on your investments
I like this video! Very simple for beginners to learn from, I am just in my first month of investing and pretty excited for the long-term profits and financial freedom. I may suggest this video to some friends too.
Aw thanks! I try my best to keep it simple. :)
Good video/presentation. Keep up your good work encouraging new (younger) persons to get involved in investing: for their future. Also, continuing self education!
Thank you! This means a lot to me! :)
New subscriber here,Steve. Lots of gems here in this video. Thanks so much.
Thanks for providing such valuable information! I'm just beginning my journey, and I appreciate the insights you've shared. I recall you mentioning a budgeting sheet in your video, but I haven't been able to locate it in the description. Could you please confirm if it's included in one of the other links provided? Thanks again!
Thanks Joseph. Yes, it should be in the description. I just checked right now.
Such a great video! It was simple and easy to understand. Thank you so much for this beginner angle.
Glad it was helpful!
I am with you on everything. Like I am subscribed to the message. But this still isn’t compound interest. DRIP isn’t going to give you 10% on average like the S&P, you said it yourself- you get just a small amount per share. Reinvesting would mean paying capital gains tax. And then of course taking the dividends as income won’t get you compounded.
Thanks for an informative video. For a follow-up, what types of companies and dividends are suitable for taxable and tax-advantaged accounts would be helpful.
thank you so much for Sharing ... i found your video to be very helpful ... i am a newbie and have never traded or invested in stock market ... but i am in the learning phase right now and will be taking the flight real soon ... wish i had pushed myself to learn this much sooner its just always been so intimidating ... but im very serious about changing my Financial status so off to the races we go ... i am 48 years old so i have got a lot of work to do sheesh, but i am so tired of being tired so here i am.
I'm glad you're taking the first step to investing!
So, for example... Altria pays a high dividend yield. $4 per year, each share roughly $45. To get $40,000 in dividends I need to buy 10,000 shares so $450,000 😮. That's one of the highest dividend yields out there. Most broad market ETFs are only less than 2% so I'd need to own $2M VOO shares in order to get $40,000 dividend annually.. is that right?
Altria is not the highest paying dividend asset out there are assets with over 8-10% annual dividends
What advice do you have for a 60+ year old with no investments and wants to retire?
You can read my eBook: Financial Freedom, Faster. I talk about the money steps to follow, starting with budgeting and building an emergency fund.
Really nice and easy to understand video! Can you do a video on what you do to research what index funds or shares to invest in please?
Thanks James! Yes! I can make a video on this!
Thanks for the video! Quick question, why would you invest in a dividend stock right now with a dividend yield of 3% (SCHD) when you could put money in a high yield savings account that pays back more than 5%?
Steve, first, thanks for the presentation.
My question is how you can save the most in terms of capital gain tax on these dividend payments.
$1500/mo rental income has way more tax advantage in the means of depreciation. Whereas, dividends income doesn't have any. Thanks again.
You can invest in a tax-advantaged account, such as a Roth IRA where the dividend withdrawals will be tax and penalty free at 59.5.
@CalltoLeap Delayed but true. I trade/invest via LLC entity. Will you be able to provide any advice on what I should do with any yearly income I realized so that I can minimize my tax aside from those business expense write-offs? I.e. getting myself under its payroll, etc.
The AT&T exemple make so much sense
Yay! I'm glad it did!
Great video, it looks like it is easier to use fidelity than Vanguard it is confusing
Uphold is user friendly and better of
Fantastic! I'm hooked. Thanks Steve.
Ah nice! Hope this video helped!
A part I don't understand with the DCA approach is if you only have 20, 50, maybe even 100 to put in per month, what if that isn't enough to buy a share so you just hang on to it to the next month? I know with my investing platform it doesn't allow me to purchase partial shares and certain companies have minimum investment amounts
It depends on the platform you're using to invest, which platform are you using?
I also heard about investing in Life insurance that also pay dividens and is tax free. You can also borrow against your policy etc. It’s another way to invest. What is your thought? Thank you.
IUL or VUL doesn't pay dividends
Great Video Thanks
Hi, Steve. I am a Singaporean, resident in Malaysia. Great video. I am planning to start learning how to start trading..I find your video to be informative. Thank you
Thanks Vincent! I appreciate you!
I started following you! Your video is really good!
I’ve been using an advisor. Have a good amount in retirement. About 8-10 years from retirement. Thinking of taking control and self managing, do you have a suggestion if I should just convert to just a few funds? That pay dividends? Instead of all the different funds I’m in now? I’d be happy with 50-60 k dividends and I can still work part time for extra money. What portfolio would you use and how much total funds would I need to make that happen? Seeing if I have enough or how much more I need to aggressively save.
50k annual dividends is very much possible on a lump sum of 500-600k without extra monthly contributions investing in a low cost stable asset
Great tips! Seems like we all made the same mistakes… as long as we learn from them
So true! We can always learn from them!
I asked all my friends and families to look at your videos especially my 2 sons
Awesome! Thanks Judith!
Thank you so much, this is so helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for t he great video and. well explined. I've learn a lot from your videos Steve your a great teacher. You give me confidence in investing an let grow my portafolio in the long run. Thank you againg and God Bless...🙏✌
Aw, thanks Tony! This means a lot! :)
Hi, real fascinating video, thanks) but I can't find your budget sheet :(
Excellent video Steve. Looking forward to a “beyond the basics“ video. Thanks.
You got it! Anything in particular you would like me to talk about?
I’m interested in better understanding what the Order Types are, when it make sense to use “Market”, etc.
well explained !!
Loved how simple and clear your presentation was. Do you have a presentation in Options?
Hi Ada! Yep! You can check out my channel. :)
Yes! I am viewing the videos you have posted in both RUclips and Facebook. I’m interested in Coaching please. I have sent you an email. Thanks 🙏🏽 Ada
Very informative video, thank you! What other ETFs I can consider as a beginner investor? Thanks again.
If I were to talk to my younger 20 year old self, I'd probably stick with the basics. (1) S&P 500, (2) Growth, and (3) Dividend-Paying
I personally like SPY, QQQ, and SCHD. However, you can invest in what you're most comfortable with.
For a dividend -paying account, can I do it through a Roth IRA?
