Remember, the goal is to NOT have to sell you shares in order to fund your lifestyle. SCHD's gives you a true buy and hold forever option, thus ONLY living off of dividends.
I live off dividends on ETFs, for sure it can improve your wealth if you reinvest them to buy more shares, creating a snowball effect that allows your investments to compound over time. It's one of the most passive and effective ways to build an income stream. well managed steady growth for me.
Jacob have you considered the possibility of cashing out some of those dividends for paying off your monthly expenses, instead of re-investing them? Bcos I need a lot as rent, inflation alone eat up almost all of what I make.
To be honest I keep compounding, adhering to well established patterns from a professional, even as a rookie, can bring tremendous value! I’ve trimmed, added also and now my average growth has increased in the past year while participating behind a top performer. effectively remits over hundred k annually and increasing.
I'm a few years away from retirement. SCHD really broadens my portfolio. When the market dips SCHD's value really kicks in. I'm not really all in on the dividends as much as I am on its diversification. SCHD can be a substitution for bonds in some cases.

Thanks for the shout out Davis! Great video! SCHD is great and of course it shouldn’t be anyone’s only investment. When comparing the past performance of stocks and ETFs, it’s important to remember that while historical data can offer insights, no one knows what will happen in the future. SCHD is great for stability, capital growth that has the potential to keep up with the S&P while paying a growing dividend that is more consistent and dependable than the fluctuations of the market.

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.

Finally, a video that steps back and looks at SCHD and other dividend stocks/funds. Dividends are just forced stock sales - nothing more, nothing less. You can always create your own meta-dividend stock/fund by selling a small portion of your underlying stock/fund when you need the income - a meta-dividend. This is even better than a standard dividend stock/fund. If you don't need the income, don't sell and then don't pay taxes on the meta-dividend. If you need more income than a dividend stock/fund yields, sell the amount of stock that you need - your meta-dividend can be at any rate you want (as long as it is less than the long-term growth of the underlying stock/fund). You aren't tied to the forced stock sale that the dividend forces you to take. Qualified dividends and long-term capital gains are taxed at the same rate.
I'm in retirement now. I own SCHD instead of bonds. I like the dividend/growth aspect. I own 50% SCHD, 40% S&P500, and 10% SCHG. I really liked the last dividend SCHD paid, and I really liked how SCHD held up in the recent downdraft in the market. SCHD is up 13.1% YTD vs VOO at 19.4% YTD, but being in retirement, I really like the defensiveness provided by SCHD.
Some folks don't seem to speak to how one fund can be just a part of the portfolio. So in the case of SCHD, only if it's one's only investment does Value underperforming Growth strategies in a bull market make sense. I'm not saying this is the argument in the video, only that the other people who post about SCHD is currently underperforming the market, yes, that's true but it's a matter of not understanding the roles of different investments within a portfolio. If one was an advocate for bonds, why? Similar thoughts on having SCHD play a role in the portfolio. Nobody talks about their portfolio being 100% bonds, but often enough context is left out in RUclips videos.
The point of funds like SCHD that some people miss is not beating the S&P 500, but lowering risk in a portfolio. SCHD -should- do better in a market downturn.
Need to think longterm with schd, compound dividend growth. The numbers get astonishing. But agree with you that the best formula is to mix with growth. I'm older than you, but pair VUG with SCHD and DGRO as the core of my portfolio.
It underperforms the S&P becomes it’s not a growth focused ETF. You buy it for dividends and dividend growth. When the market shifts back to value, SCHD will benefit massively
Many many months ago, I replaced my 60/40 fund with SCHD for half of my portfolio... best decision ever. The rest of my portfolio is in Mag7, QQQ, Midcap Growth, and sectors like cloud computing and software. Everything is going for the markets right now (seasonality, low volatility, rising US dollar, sentiment, lower rates, etc.). Gut feel from looking at the charts is that MAG7 and QQQ is going on one last ridiculous parabolic run, but could be wrong. At some point down the road (weeks/months), the theme is going to change, maybe a swing to international, energy, bear market, etc. I'm ready when it happens but for now doing nothing ... just letting the 401K ATM print money.
As a long time investor I was surprised to see so many young people going crazy for SCHD. Somehow it has become the darling with the RUclips crowd at a time it was able to hang with the SP500. Most of these people have limited experience in the market. So, that is all they know. But, in a normal rising market SCHD is typically going to underperform. In a down market it will fall less than the SP500. So, not a bad value safety play after a huge runup. But for someone that is young and has many years to invest, you should certainly be more aggressive. The stock market always goes up over the long-term. Cheers!
My core funds are SPLG and VTI, also invest about 10% each in SCHD, AVUV and BND. Feel like I’m diversified with these funds and I’m very happy with my total returns from this mix:-)
Investors that are young (and thus their time horizon is long term) should invest in growth and concentrate on total return. I see too many youtubers and people that are young emphasizing dividend (and dividend growth) stocks. Their justification is to build a portfolio of income/dividend producing stocks or ETFs. However, if they are simply reinvesting that income/dividends, it would be better to get a better overall total return, and then later in life transform their portfolio to stocks that produce income/dividends. So, much emphasis on high yield dividend stocks/ETFs at a young age just to invest those type of stocks/ETFs willl mean less overall wealth in the future. They can turn that higher wealth into income/dividends later in their financial life.
I got 35% plus return by investing in VOO during the past year. I can now sell VOO, buy 50% more SCHD than I would have if I started with SCHD a year ago. What do people say to that? The dividend snowball affect requires 15+ years of investment in SCHD. A lot of people do not have that kind of timeline. A lot of those who do have that kind of timeline are likely NOT watching investment videos on RUclips.
Are these returns including dividend distributions as well as reinvested? Your point may still stand, but the math will look different than just looking at share price appreciation.
SCHD is underperforming the S&P recently. But a decision to buy today won't give you the growth of the past decade: it's about the future. So unless you have a good reason to believe that the very small number of non-dividend high fliers that have driven most of the S&P growth will continue to outperform instead of reverting to the mean, citing that recent history is meaningless. We can also find historical periods in which dividend growth stocks have outperformed non-dividend payers (Jeremy Siegel wrote a whole book about it).
Kool contents, Dav. I hold SCHD in the portfolio. Luv this quality ETF, never disappoint. I also diversify into others. Our world will always changing so do our economy. Therefore, certain funds will rotate in & out, some appreciate today but others may depreciate tomorrow. It is a rotation process. So it is advisable to stay diversify.

The problem with VOO is that you have to sell. In a retirement account, this is fine because you don't have to pay taxes. In a brokerage account, you will be f'd with capital gains tax in many situations. After taxes, you'll see you were probably better off buying SCHD and reinvesting dividends.
