We all have bills to pay. And whether it’s your mortgage, your utilities or just that pesky credit card bill, life’s little expenses tend to recur every month. There’s just one problem with this: If you’re living off of your investments, you normally get paid on a very different timeframe. Dividends are usually paid quarterly, and bond interest is usually paid semi-annually. Even if you have a diversified portfolio of bonds and dividend stocks, this schedule is going to make your monthly cash flows lumpy.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t like trying to plan my expenses three to six months in advance. And for a retiree, I can’t think of too many things scarier than running out of money in between quarterly dividend payments. Well, fear not. I have a solution: Monthly dividend stocks. Today, we’re going to look at six solid monthly dividend stocks that can be used to round out an income portfolio: STAG Industrial (STAG), EPR Properties (EPR), Realty Income (O), LTC Properties (LTC), Prospect Capital (PSEC) and PennantPark Floating Rate Capital (PFLT).
