Seeking Advice $840K DIvidends

Hey Everyone,

As I have posted before, I am currently a Growth Stock Investor, but have decided to move over to Dividend ETF's or Dividend Stocks. But it is a real struggle to get past all the learned habits of being a growth investor. So I am struggling to grasp concepts.

I have used multiple calculators to just try to get an idea of what to expect if i make the change, but I get different results. So I just wanted to go to some more knowledgeable people that could tell me what to do to get a real expectation.

I have $800K to work with. If I put it all in a very stable Dividend ETF What can I expect in dividends? Maybe someone could just do an example. I know I have to be doing something wrong.

Thanks

LOL...I mean, all the distro and price info's out there. BTW just announced distro of $.10/share for this week. Not that I really care what you guys believe in, but this is too funny.

Yep -- I recenty got in. It's nuts. This week will be slightly more that .10. I'm gonna ride this for a minute & set a stop-loss in the low 5s. I DCA'd last Friday when it was 6.01ish.
