About Joseph Carlson:

I am not a professional investor and have never claimed to be. I'm an amateur investor sharing my experience of what I've learned, where I have had success, and where I've had failures. I share my thoughts on investing and performance with transparency. My approach and goal to investing is to buy high-quality long-term investments in world-class businesses that I call "compounders". I view my investments as businesses, not as stocks. Before creating content on YouTube full time I worked as a senior-level programmer for 8 years. Over the years as a programmer, I compounded my knowledge of development. I take the same iterative learning approach to my study of investing. I study investing as a craft in the continual pursuit of being better. I will make mistakes in investment decisions from time to time. Results are not guaranteed. Please do not blindly follow me into any investments, and make sure your portfolio and investments are built around your specific income, risk tolerance, personality, and timeline, and overall circumstances.

But Joseph! You contribute a lot of money to your portfolio!!

Yes, of course I do! I have said from the start that I make investing my extra cash a top priority in my life. I put every penny of extra money I make through YouTube, Patreon, software development, or my wife working as a Nurse, into investments. And I've been consistent in saying that I think everyone should do the same.

There's many people in my community building their portfolio at a faster rate than me, some of them work at big tech companies. And there's many people building their portfolio at a slower rate. Both are fine. Just keep building your portfolio as fast as you're able to!


Patreon includes:
- Over 100 exclusive videos, and new ones every week.
- Full access to Qualtrim.com, the stock analysis website I built from the ground up
- Transparent portfolio updates, with every buy and sell I do, as well as monthly one-pager updates.
- Access to the Joseph Carlson Show private discord community, with 6, 500 members

I started watching 5 years ago, learned and grew vicariously through you on your channel. 5 years ago I pulled the trigger on investing because of you. My #1 go to investing channel. Cheers to more years of gains to come and financial independence. 😁

My dividend journey began when I realized that two particular expenses in my budget were always going to go up and never go down. The two expenses were taxes and insurance. I realized that the dramatic rise in both will need some added income. So, I started buying shares paying dividends. I can now see that this will be the path I need to take to make sure those two expenses will not overtake my future income.

BUY and hold. I bought 1000 shares in 2011 another 500 in 2016 when the story began to change and have yet to sell a share. I am up over 23, 000+ % and now have 60, 000 shares due to splits.

When I discovered that two certain items in my budget would constantly rise and never fall, I started my dividend quest. Insurance and taxes were the two costs. The sharp increase in both will require some additional revenue, I realised. I therefore began purchasing dividend-paying stocks. I now realise that this is the course of action I must follow to ensure that those two costs do not exceed my future earnings.

Two ideas to help you grow your channel:
First one is to make stock analysis a thing. We all love hearing you talk about the stocks, but hearing about the same companies can get a little bit boring. I suggest once a month or every two weeks you make a poll for us to pick a stock and then make a video about it. It would make a channel a bit fresher for people who are with you for some time.

Second one is Passive Income's portfolio 1 million special. I think a lot of us would love a story of how you got into investing and how your strategy changed over time :)

You taught me more than anyone else, Jo.
One of the honest, transparent and greatest investors on YouTube.

And you impart your knowledge and wisdom for free…you are awesome, Joseph! I look forward to your videos, every single day!

[E.GCreates]

My opinion for noobs whl want to create a monster dividend portfolio is you need to be both a dividend investor and a growth investor, basically how i made my first million also i use an FA Abigail Ryan Ann For example if I just got a 1000% gain on Tesla and then pulled 85% of the money out and went into a load of more stable dividend stocks like CVX So I would say diversify, but also use those growth opportunities to build the capital to invest in the dividend payers (or in cash flowing real estate)

[tatianastarcic]

I would think that a major benefit of dividend investing is that calculating portfolio size needed is not relevant. We don't care about the value of the portfolio. We care about the sustainable income it pays. As you invest you can gradually see the income rise as you invest more and pull the retirement trigger when it's high enough regardless of the market sentiment.

[DonaldMark-nese]

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. $52k dividends received in 2022.

[mahogs]

I remember watching you when the portfolio was only 25k, I remember when you showed your increasing dividend chart every episode, it was really motivational

[jameswood]

I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my portfolio for retirement of about $150k. I want to know: Do I keep contributing to my portfolio in these unstable markets, or do I look into alternative sectors?

[ChristopherAbelman]

I recently earned over $6, 000 in dividends from my index fund investments. This passive income allows me to spend without selling my shares. I've decided to reinvest these dividends to further grow my portfolio.

[A_francis]

I’m pretty young and just started my portfolio with around $80K. Dividends drew me in right away! Slowly trying to create significant passive income and manage my Stock Portfolio. how do I invest to deal with markets ups & downs

[gcs]

I’d say it’s a monster portfolio that pays some dividends…

A monster dividend portfolio implies it’s able to fund your yearly living expenses. That would be life changing.

COST is way overpriced… even more over priced than NVDA

[annaj.osorio]

There is obviously a compounding effect in the very long term for large capital, but is not "automatic", and with the wrong strategies you can even lose more than you have. I've been working on expanding my $210K portfolio for a while, and my primary obstacle is the lack of clear entry and exit strategies. Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated

[MYlifeAScrazy]

I also own some CRM and BKNG. Great content Joseph

I want to invest $400k in profit-yielding dividend shares but am not sure which to buy into because dividend-paying stocks don't give rapid price growth and can provide a steady income stream.

FACT CHECK : JOESPH DID NOT CREATE A "MONSTER DIVIDEND" PORTFOLIO!!! HE CREATED A STOCK PORTFOLIO HE DOES NOT OWN ANY MONSTERS

[GeorgestraitStriat]

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274, 800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.
