Dividends4Life: If You Like Dividends, You Should Love These 2 Stocks

Investing in dividend-paying stocks is a good way to generate fairly reliable income. However, that strategy doesn't necessarily mean you should buy those that have the highest yields. Those may be a product of share price declines prompted by real problems in the underlying business -- problems that could lead to dividend cuts. These two companies have made a habit of increasing their dividends, and income investors will find their yields compelling.

While PepsiCo (NASDAQ:PEP) is best known for soda, its lineup features an array of other products such as snacks, cereals, and beverages, sold under popular brands including Frito-Lay, Gatorade, Quaker, and Tropicana. Realty Income (NYSE:O) is a REIT, which means it must pay out at least 90% of its taxable income as dividends, making it ideally suited for the portfolios of dividend seekers. It has been around for more than half a century, and has raised payments at least once a year for more than 25 years.
