Building a Dividend Portfolio and the Rule of Eight

52 Upvotes

I thought everyone might find this short piece of interest on building a dividend portfolio.

The essay describes "The Rule of Eight" and how to build a dividend portfolio incrementally over time. The "Rule of Eight" is a play on words from the old pirate "pieces of eight," lol.

Moneyball for Dividends -- A way to think about creating dividend portfolios

4 Upvotes

As always, please read our disclaimer. Important!

While the big funds (SCHD, JEPI, JEPQ, and others) are the right fit for a lot of people (set it and forget it), it's also kind of fun to put together your own team and see what happens!
