This is all based on the assumption that if a company pays dividends it’s not reinvesting in the business. A company can do both – it can pay a dividend, rebuy shares AND allocate capital to reinvest in the business all at the same time. Most great companies do that.
Not enough people talk about tax strategy for beginners! I’ve been building a portfolio that starts with an ISA to grow tax-free — just made a video breaking it down step-by-step.
Ouch.
Very useful, another great video full of info, well done.
dividends do not matter… only total return does.
Doesn't it seem incredibly egotistical for a company to suggest it can spend money more efficiently than the entire market? Now, I concede that there is a tax advantage since unrealized gains aren't taxed, but that isn't how things ought to be — it's just legal tax evasion by people who lazily chose to re-invest.
You're also not looking at the volatility correctly. If you look at either propagation of error or the Kelly criteria, high volatility looks way worse. You can't assume markets will always go up – there's no mechanistic basis to assume that's true. You're just projecting past gains into the future. Bonds are a contract with a clear and reliable mechanism.
Getting Dividends, also means = u get ur part of the share, and ur getting ur invested starting money back bit by bit
If i put all my Money into Nvidia, let em do with my money however they please, and then = Bancrupt
Everything is lost, if i get Dividends, atleast i got a little bit back over the year
For dividend investors, MSTY is a wise option, particularly during volatile markets. It seems like a safe long-term investment due to its steady dividend increase and strong track record. To strike a mix between stability and growth, particularly as we manage the effects of rising interest rates, I'm concentrating on ETFs like MSTY.
I’ve got about $300K in investments, and I’m considering shifting to monthly dividend ETFs for steady cash flow; but I’m unsure which ones suit my income goals best.
I despise the current view that dividends don't matter. They want to keep the earnings in the company to grow their empire. It works until it doesn't and the company's management makes a bad investment and crashes the company leaving the shareholders with nothing even from the time spent when the company was doing well. Just give me the money, tyvm.
Honestly, predictable income in retirement sounds like peace of mind to me. At this point, I'm way more interested in stability and steady cash flow than chasing the next big thing. Dividends that grow over time? That's the dream.
lol… you clipped the most clickbaity 5 seconds of Ben Felix's video and then pretended like he actually doesn't think dividends matter. Obviously they matter. However, they're just one part of your total return. Not free magic money as many believe they think they are. Dividend payers are also not correlated with less volatility and do not protect against risks like Sequence of Returns in retirement. "Dividend stocks" are not an asset class. You de-risk and adjust your risk profile using bonds and cash. Not "dividend stocks".
I can already see the folks over at r/dividendgang spam posting this video and then claim it dunks on the "boogerheads". All this serves to do is reinforce peoples' perception of how dividends work rather than educating them on what is more optimal instead.
Some people may be more likely to panic sell and do dumb stuff if they're invested in growth rather than dividend payers. That is a skill issue that can be fixed with education, not a feature of dividends.
thank you for inspiring young people like me. im 18 and have started investing more intensely because of you. even started my own channel to document it! thank you damien
thanks for the deep knowledge
Really good discussion..
Iam also in for the accumulation stage and I didnt hit my 30s yet. You gave me more historical Data, that i wasnt aware about. keep up the work
I’m going to build my portfolio to $2M, and then only take out excess from that. Even if I have to go to a part time job. If it lasts for a few years growing rather than crashing, I’ll have a giant cash stack to buy crashes.
If it crashes early on I’ll go back to work until it hit 2 again
I avoid the aristocrats – they're usually richly valued, tiny dividends and even a 5-10% CAGR just means a small percentage of bog all!!
The vast majority of tech businesses will be the Kodaks and Polaroids of tomorrow.
That Aaliyah – try again lyrics joke at 08:40 should be fully appreciated, sorry but that was so subtle but so great. What a time to be alive
A report into the 4500 isa millionaires showed that most of them have the majority of their portfolio in Uk dividend paying stocks. I found that shocking. But interesting.
you age well, lol. (image of old you)
Is anyone pulling in over $5K monthly? How much do you have invested to achieve that?
