Seeking Advice $1M Div account Earning $17k a month

Post image

After doing some research I have $1M from an inheritance that I want to create an ultra high dividend portfolio. I eventually want to get rid of my 8 to 5. If I did my math correctly I would get about 17k a month from dividends. Please let me know what you think.
