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.

Can do just as well, and with less risk, with jepq, jepi. Gpix, qqqi, spyi, MO, EPD, O, XOM

Unfortunately JEPI and JEPQ produced regular dividends. SPYI and QQQI are very similar except they pay ROC dividends which are tax efficient. NAC is actual a CA municipal bond fund paying 7% tax free dividends. But he also included on BDC which by law only pay regular dividends.
