Ways High-Yield Dividend Stocks Can Help You Recreate Warren Buffett's Investing Success

Many people consider Warren Buffett the greatest investor in history and it's not hard to understand why. According to a 2012 Yale study, Buffett's company, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-B), had the best risk-adjusted return of any company or mutual fund that is over 30-plus years old. This article is meant to help you better understand how Buffett was able to beat not just the market over the last few decades, but every single money manager and chief executive in America.

The good news is that according to that same Yale study, there is no magic to Buffett's investing prowess, simply consistent application of four principles: high quality, low volatility, high-yield dividend growth stocks, and a buy-and-hold investing style. As I'll now explain there are three ways these kinds of companies can supercharge your portfolio's long-term returns and help maximize the chances of beating the market over the coming decades: high-yield dividend growth investing, cash flow reinvestment and buy and hold.
