Dividends are what got me into investing in the stock market. The thing to me is, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. Have over $600K in my portfolio as I bought a lot of dividend stocks before, I'm buying more now, and I will buy more when it drops further.

Recently bought some recommended stocks and now they are just penny stocks. There seems to be more negative portfolios in the last 3rd half of 2023 with markets tumbling, soaring inflation, and banks going out of business. My concern is how can the rapid interest-rate hike be of favor to a value investor, or is it better avoiding stocks for a while?

I wasn't financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.

Stocks for the win!! As a beginner investor, I used a few things to really help expand my knowledge of the stock market in a way that was pretty digestible for a new investor. I still reference it fairly often to get a quick overview of a stock to understand it's surface-level fundamentals by using an advisor, and I can't recommend that method of learning enough! I use James Fletcher Brennan he is super helpful to a lot of beginners out there, thanks for sharing

My wife and I were doing very well with the amount of money we had accumulated for retirement. Well over 80% of that money was made by buying high-end stocks at a deep discount during the 2008 Recession. In 2009, I fired the stockbroker, got rid of all mutual funds, and bought individual dividend stocks. Be patient, don't be afraid and do your homework and you can make a lot of money

Thanks Nate, awesome video as always! Can you consider doing a video specifically on how you analyze sector trends? That seems like a key component of successful portfolio management and would be really interesting to hear about your process.

I am 19 years old. I have no income beyond the allowance that my parents give me every month. However I feel like it's never to early to start building your portfolio so I decided to start my journey with the little money I can save on a monthly basis

New subscriber here, I'm 50 and don't plan on retiring for another 5 years, my pension fund of 500k is fully invested in stocks, and the value of the fund has dropped 20% in the past 12 months. Would you advise switching some of the funds out of stocks into less risky assets, or should I sit tight and ride the storm for another year, given that I have another 5 years before retirement?

Very thorough explanations of the dividend stocks with the good and the not so good well covered. Thanks, Nate. I like your videos very much.
