Stocks that pay dividends have helped millions of investors become wealthy. But not all dividend stocks are the same. Before you simply pick a few for your portfolio, you need to get a grasp on one of the major differences among the thousands of stocks that pay dividends.
Investors choose dividend stocks for a variety of reasons. Some pay more attention to the company and its future prospects and happen to pick a stock that pays a dividend, with the dividend not really playing a major role in their investing decision. Others see dividend stocks as being categorically more conservative than their non-dividend-paying counterparts, and so they don't necessarily focus much on the particular attributes of the companies whose stocks they buy.
