The best way to start the New Year off on the right foot is by purchasing high-quality dividend stocks and allowing them to go to work for you over the long-term. Dividend stocks have historically left non-dividend-paying stocks in the dust over the long run, and companies that pay dividends often have time-tested business models that serve as beacons to attract investors hungry for added income.
So which dividend stocks should you consider buying in January? That's a question we posed to a diverse set of Foolish contributors. The dividend stocks they settled on include Paychex (NASDAQ:PAYX), PNC Financial Services (NYSE:PNC), Terra Nitrogen Company LP (NYSE:TNH), Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE:BIP), and United Technologies (NYSE:UTX).
