Stocks with the Longest Dividend Growth History

As many of you have seen, dividend growth is wonderful tool. A steadily growing passive income from stock market or trading activities is the dream of most of us, but nearly all fail. 90% of investors don’t put their money into long-term growth stocks. Sure, everybody talks about solid dividend stocks and dividend growth as well as value, but in the end, they become influenced by hotter themes and buy Apple or Research in Motion.

Today, I would like to show you all stocks with the longest history of consecutive dividend growth, also named as Dividend Kings. Those are stocks with more than 50 years of consecutive hikes. Only a small group of 15 companies joined this exclusive class. Here are my favorite stocks: The Procter & Gamble (PG), The Coca-Cola Company (KO) and 3M (MMM).
