So i just bought into my first ever dividend fund.. VDIGX (Vanguard).. i have a couple of 401ks, as well as a couple of brokerage accounts , but most of that stuff is focused on retirement .. what I’m trying to do now is create a “lazy portfolio” where money (dividends) appears in my checking account every quarter, while maintaining the principle, without worrying about when to buy or sell... I’m starting off very small, i dont care if my first dividend checks/direct deposits are only $20.. the idea is to just keep adding to it and adding to it, to the point where maybe every quarter i get direct deposits large enough to cover my car note (which will be paid off soon), or eventually my mortgage.. gotta start somewhere though.
