I was just thinking a few things this morning.
One is Dividends were paid overnight again. Not much, a few hundred bucks, but hey, it is money.
The next is that this thread keeps going, and that is a blessing just to keep people thinking. All all other sites, when you talk about money, or someone asks about it, it turns into people thinking you are bragging about your money..
Far from it... I am a guppy compared to Greg, and some people would take him talking his numbers as bragging, and it would go south quickly. Yes, his numbers are mind boggling, but i commend the grown-ups on this site that are truly looking for Opinions from those that have and do...I call it, the Success leaves Clues method..It will speed up your learning curve by taking in those opinions.
Next, Since my method is the same , but my Choices are different, I have been Re-Researching all my Investments, just to see where I am at.
I did it by looking at what I owned and the 3 and 5 year Total returns, the Dividends paid, and it's strength long term against it's competition..
That best of the breed, long term numbers, and growth for the future..
For me, all is working good, but just saying that using the methods talked about here work, whatever you end up choosing.
Also, if you don't have a Schwab account, get one.. You can research and get all the numbers you will ever need to make your choices, and they are reasonable fees.
Thanks Greg and others that keep this alive... I have stopped talking Investing in other places...Seems like they don't want to hear it..
BIG mistake and missed opportunities..Also depending on Pensions, and the Government, is a dangerous Play. For me, it is a Worse play than my High Yielding assets..
