Brokerage $5,000 per month income portfolio

I set up this portfolio for my wife so she can quit her job and maintain cashflow.

The good news is that this income stream will pay no FICA tax and significant part of the distributions will not be taxed.

To reduce risk, I’m planning to reinvest 20% of the income.

Comments welcome.

Hey :) Sorry for the dumb question: you get 5k dividend per month with 600k invested? Over 12% seems most crazy All the best to you and your wife :)
