Regular readers of this column know that I’m a big fan of dividend growth investing. It’s a subject very close to my heart – and my wallet. Having invested in dividend stocks for more than a decade, I can tell you I’m very pleased with the results. I’ve also heard from scores of readers – many of whom have been at it much longer than I have – who can attest to the merits of this simple but powerful strategy.
For my next two columns, I’m going to step back from the company and fund analysis that usually appears in this space and talk more generally about dividend investing. Today, I’ll explain why, in my opinion, it’s an appropriate strategy for many do-it-yourself investors. Here are five reasons to love dividend growth investing. 1. It’s easy to understand, 2. It discourages trading, 3. It’s well-suited to lazy people, 4. It protects you from inflation and 5. It works.
