– IntelligentSpeculator.net
Dividend investing is a huge part of my investment strategy. As I’ve mentioned in my now monthly passive income updates, receiving dividend income from my both my Ultimate Sustainable Dividend portfolio and my ETF portfolio is a primary driver of how my retirement will be like a few decades from now:)Today for the first time, I started from the Russell 1000, a large cap index that (as you can imagine) includes twice as many names as the S&P500.
