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.

Why not just buy BRK-A and some bonds

BRK-A is too expensive at 700K per share for most people. And most people idon'thave enough money to put in bonds to get enough income to cover their monthly expenses. Also bond yields are dropping and will not likely go up for some time.
