That intro hit plus coffee, right way to start the day.

I didn't know about dividends really until the last decade or so, but all my retirement money was in a 401K which is not optimal for dividend investing. now that I'm about to retire in January I rolled that 401K into a fidelity IRA and invested in dividend paying stocks and funds. now I have around $60K of annual income from those right now and do not have to sell a single share. I feel a lot more secure going into retirement due to my dividend income.

Our dividend portfolios are roughly the same value. Some same names…some not. May the best investor win. Good luck!

Zach! I’m buying up a ton of $MO stock today! 🚀🤑💵💵💵📈

[RobT]

It great to see how much your portfolio has grown, I started watching around your 4th video. You also gave me that push I needed to start investing, appreciate you so much bro.

I'm confused what's the difference between visa and MasterCard is. Is there any? Please tell me more

[christiangardener]

Is there a setup to receive notifications when a stock in your portfolio is cut or raised ?

@Dividend Data
Zach … has anyone looked into why different brokerages pay out the dividend on different dates for example SCHD on ETrade is going to pay out June 25 on the other hand on Empower They’re going to pay out July 1.Why is that?🤔🤔

[TortoiseInvesting]

Always look forward to your uploads! You ever thought about exiting Xom? I don't see oil having the best future going forward, my personal opinion.

I need one of those hats lmao. Great vid

[walkingmiracles]

new dividend investor does the day you purchase the stock matter if after 2024 payout date?

[mickeyslee]

Question Zach, what is your favourite non dividend stock? Big fan of the channel.

[AK-gkjq]

Zach, would be great if you Identify say top Equity Income funds say on 1, 3, 5, 10 year track record. Filter their top 10 positions and list them with DY and expected DPS growth?

@29:12 VISA doesn’t particularly just deal with credit cards, they’re also a main issuer for debit cards as well. They take a fraction of every transaction.

I just signed up for your service. I am very happy with the purchase, the only thing that I would like to see is the "SAFETY" of the stock dividend. Just my 2 cents as your customer. The price is perfect for this type of service. Love the idea of adding a research tab to your database.

I prefer Philip Morris International over Altria. I think the international cigarette business will be longer around than the American one. Also they are great positioned in smokeless tobacco (zyn) and heated tobacco (iqos). Interesting will be when they introduce iqos in the US. In other markets it hurt their cigarette sales. In the US it will hurt Altria so they can roll it out way more aggressively

[tomasboavista]

What broker do u use, is trading 212 safe??

[bige]

thoughts on an average monthly amount to put towards dividend stocks? 500-600 a month etc. for long term investing

[Viewvic]

Hey Zach, do you also invest in ETF aswell?
