How to Get Started Investing in Real Estate Syndications, Part 1
As you know, I'm a big fan of real estate investing. Several years ago I purchased 14 units in Grand Rapids, Michigan and they have done very well through the years. Then a year or so ago I added private real estate lending to my list of investments. That has been going well too (who can argue with 10% returns?) That said, I have been looking for even more ways to … [Read more...]
The Three-Fund Portfolio
You might have noticed that I don't usually list my exact stock market investments. I usually say something general like "I invest in index funds." That's mostly because I don't claim to be an investing expert and don't want someone to mindlessly copy what I do. Simply repeating my actions without considering the many issues related to a person's specific circumstances may … [Read more...]
How to Invest for Retirement with Limited Assets and Avoid Sequence of Returns Risk
In Our Meeting with Two Financial Planners there was an epic comment that I just couldn't let go to waste. I know that many people don't read the comments (I don't know why as there's often very valuable information in the comments but I know many don't read them because I often get questions emailed to me that have been answered in the comments). Off track a bit: if you … [Read more...]

Today I'll continue telling you how I ended up buying almost $200k in dividend stocks recently. In case you missed part 1 and want to catch up, see How I Added Dividend Stocks to My Portfolio, Part 1. In that post I set up the background (my interest in dividend investing), how I educated myself on dividend investing, and how I developed a set of criteria I wanted to see … [Read more...]
How I Added Dividend Stocks to My Portfolio, Part 1
Warning: I need to put this upfront just to be 100% clear to all readers. This post is about what I've done investing-wise. It's not about what you should do investing-wise. I do not know your goals, financial situation, or any one of a hundred other details that would even slightly qualify me to offer any investing advice to you. As such, this post is not meant as … [Read more...]
Seven Steps to Creating Passive Income through Dividend Investing
The other day on my post titled Coronavirus is Killing Me in a Different Way, long-time reader Apex (who is known for leaving awesome comments on this site) left this suggestion: I think many here might find an exploratory dividend stock post valuable as a means to consider another source of passive income. Comments from the community of people who have been doing this giving … [Read more...]
Coronavirus is Killing Me in a Different Way
It was a few weeks ago when I thought about one of my friends...I hadn't talked to him in some time. I messaged him via Facebook to see what was going on. I asked if we could chat sometime soon and catch up. He responded that he was swamped at work and really didn't have any time to talk right now. Then he sent me the following words: "Coronavirus is killing me in … [Read more...]
