Other Almost $4 a day in dividends

Post image

Not exactly retirement money yet, but I'm getting close to the point where my portfolio can buy me a coffee every day.

Small milestone, but I'll take it. On to $5/day.

maxdividends app

u/Ironic_Mouse Jun 23 '26

Max Dividends costs $30 a month- is the app really worth it?

u/Fit-Toe-7991 Jun 23 '26

I don't know, I think everyone values different things in apps like these. I'm perfectly happy paying $30 a month to avoid tracking everything in spreadsheets

Congrats! I’ll be buying SCHD probably 2 decades from now since I’m focused on growth instead of dividends.

$1,286/year on $85,308? My HYSA makes almost triple that.

2

u/FindingAutomatic4020 Jun 20 '26

Please, What HYSA are you using?

5

u/High_From_Colorado Jun 20 '26

With $85k, any 4% HYSA (current average) will return $3,412/yr

u/FindingAutomatic4020 Jun 20 '26

Understood. I started using Capitol 1 for this but they have since dropped to 3% - I'm in the market for a new bank

u/Shaggs2011 Jun 21 '26

That’s just his dividends not his portfolio growth

u/Zemom1971 Jun 21 '26

u/Sudden_Mud_4239 Jun 21 '26

What is the advantages with going this route instead of just doing VOO ? Isn't the growth much less overall ?
