💡 MaxDividends Mission: Helping people build growing passive income, retire early, and live off dividends.
Every Friday, I share what I’m buying — real moves, no fluff. The plan is simple: mix high yield with dividend growth to build income that grows year after year.
My goal is $12,000/month in ~10 years. This journey is open to anyone — it’s about creating a legacy, taking care of loved ones, and leaving behind a stream of income that outlives you.

Hi partners — Max here!
Another week is coming to a close, which means one thing: new buys.
Following the rules of the MaxDividends Income System, today I selected and added two companies to my portfolio. A few more shares, a little more income — and the flywheel keeps turning.
This week’s purchases added about $8 of monthly dividend income. That’s roughly $96 per year.
Now here’s the part I really like. That’s about the same as my monthly coffee spend.
So yes — in one single week, I basically gifted myself a free month of coffee. Forever.
Not a bad deal, especially given my love for good coffee.
And here’s the mindset shift that really matters. I don’t want to quit coffee to “save money.” I’d much rather drink my cappuccino knowing it’s paid for by the companies I own.
There’s something deeply satisfying about that idea — that a simple daily pleasure is covered by dividend income from real businesses in my portfolio. Say, a cup of coffee quietly paid for by companies like Target.
That kind of thinking keeps me motivated. Income replacing expenses. One small layer at a time.
Do you ever think about your portfolio this way?
Alright — let’s get to today’s buys. So grab a coffee — let’s dig in ☕💪
