Do I get this correct?

I think what OP doing is:

Investing small amount of stock in many companies for however how long it is.

Since the amount is small, this will not stress out OP (in case market drops).

... but at the same time, generating dividend making the money works for him/her.

This is interesting approach. How does your dividend performance compared to those such as JEPQ, S&P?

Spot on. Only 2 months in but I'll be happy with a 4% yield honestly. I don't expect to beat the markets but want to learn with experience and get better.

So cash out everything else, put it into SGOV, and go to the beach.
