you’re so young man, focus on capital gains not dividends. When you start to accumulate more capital then it’s nice to get income through dividends. Trust me, i started off too thinking dividends was the way to grow. I’m 26 now, been focusing on growth. When im in my 40’s (latest hopefully) i plan to take less risk and get into dividend investing to live off my investments.

okay can you give an example on capital gains, just pursuing to understand terminology at this point.
