☕️ Sunday Coffee: Dividends for Life. Inflation-Proof Your Retirement
No matter what your retirement plans look like, dividends can help you get there
Most folks were never taught how to invest for dividends, even though it’s one of the oldest income-generating strategies—over 400 years old, in fact.
If you want to retire comfortably, it’s crucial to take control of your financial future. Your fate is in your own hands, and dividends should absolutely be part of that conversation.
Dividend investing?
Dividend investing allows you to build a portfolio that grows over time and generates an increasing income stream. Even better, dividends can supplement and supercharge your dream retirement.
When should you start investing in dividends?
Ideally, the moment you turn 18 and open a brokerage account. But let’s be real, most of us didn’t get that head start. So the next best time is today.
Dividend investing is one of the most rewarding and addictive habits you can develop. The sooner you start, the faster you’ll fall in love with the process.
I’m confident that in 20 years, my dividend income will surpass my potential pension income. Why? Because I control the power of compounding in my dividend portfolio. Here’s what I mean.
I have no control over my future pension growth. Each year, my government pension adjusts for inflation based on the same metrics used for Social Security.
This typically amounts to a 2-3% annual increase, so over the next 30 years, I’ll see some decent growth.
But here’s the kicker: my dividend portfolio will grow exponentially faster than any inflation-adjusted pension. Plus, I’m in the driver’s seat when it comes to how my dividend portfolio performs.
Dividends vs. inflation
There are three key ways to grow your dividend income: dividend reinvestment, dividend increases, and adding fresh capital.
Dividend reinvestment is critical for long-term success. At a minimum, you should aim to reinvest 25% of your dividends, but if you don’t need the income, reinvest everything.
Dividend increases are like magic. As a dividend growth investor, you’ll regularly see companies hike their payouts. Meanwhile, income investors will also benefit from supplemental and special dividends.
Adding new capital to your portfolio is the ultimate power move. Every time you inject fresh cash, you’re boosting your future income.
Bottom Line
Who doesn’t want to take their kids and grandkids to exciting trip? Who doesn’t want to eat out at a fancy restaurant without worrying about the bill?
If you want to live large, you’ve got to think big. I want to live a life of abundance while staying true to who I am. I don’t need fame or fortune, just a steady stream of dividends.
At the end of the day, it’s all about family. My wife and I already have enough, but we want to be prepared for anything. The more resources we have, the more we can help our kids and grandkids.
And, of course, I wouldn’t mind an all-expenses-paid trip to anywhere in the world, courtesy of my dividends.
And that’s where MaxDividends comes in.

Public companies have full control over their dividend payments. This is the ultimate kicker to invest for dividends. Better have a guaranteed return than a pension/stock that may or may not be able to cover your expenses.
