    I got a late start to investing, but I still have a 20-year time horizon. I’m focused on dividends, but I’m still investing in S&P 500 in my 401K, since they don’t have anything dividend-related, with my Roth IRA focused on dividends. Just had a conversation with my 13-year-old daughter about the importance of investing. Getting her started early so she can have options when she reaches adulthood.

    SCHD, SCHG, and AVUV equally weighted without rebalancing would likely give a higher return over a long time period which could be converted further into SCHD and various REIT’s as you near retirement. Don’t forget growth when you’re younger but especially don’t forget small cap value which has had the best returns long term.

  • @pal8h
    @pal8h 4 місяці тому +1

    With long term calculators such as this one, I think that the price appreciation should be equal to the dividend growth. If SCHD /DGRO were to generate those high dividends in the future, the market would value that and the price would increase, keeping the long term dividend yield in that 3-4% range. Love the videos and your approach to investing!

    Thank you for making this video Jake. I do have a question though. In the video you mentioned that the total return of investing in VOO would likely be higher than DGRO & SCHD. My question is if the investor was ok with the higher volatility of the VOO, would it make sense to invest in VOO for some period of time, and then rotate into DGRO & SCHD or would the tax hit offset the higher returns?

    • @DividendGrowthInvesting
      @DividendGrowthInvesting  6 місяців тому +2

      100% it could make sense! You have to remember though that the timing could get tricky if you are unlucky. Imagine you wanted to rebalance in 2008 or 2020 or 2022. You can get very unlucky or very lucky with the timing. In theory, over a long time period, focusing on growth and then rebalancing into DGRO/SCHD could work very well. I personally recommend that people consider doing both. Investing in SCHD/DGRO and also in growth that way you don't have all of your eggs in one basket. I invest in just growth in my Roth IRA and in SCHD/DGRO in my taxable accounts. Find what works for you and go for it!

      You would have much higher capital appreciation and about the same dividend growth. VGT is not ideal to live off the income. You would most likely want to consider rebalancing out of VGT later on and adding a higher dividend ETF if your plan is to live off the income from your portfolio.

    One thing I *strongly* caution against is looking too far forward when your calculations have the capital appreciation and the dividend cagr set to different rates. In a couple years, probably no big deal but if you look at the difference over 30 years you'll notice some ridiculous yields. That isn't just the magic of compounding; that's an illogical expectation. We can't take historical growth rates, project forward, and expect the market to ignore a 10% yield on SCHD.

      Yeah I think keeping it more conservative is the best approach. I will say though that compound rates are easier to maintain with ETFs than with individual stocks because the weighting allocation is market cap weighted and based on the survival of the fittest. I feel much more confident with the numbers when looking at ETFs compared with individual stocks.

      Ok, going back 5 years I see an annual average dividend increase of over 30% (2019/2020 compared to 2023/2024). Thanks for the insight. As you suggest, DGRO is a complement to SCHD in my portfolio. And the overall price has gained substantially.

    I have to reach "professional investor" status to be able to invest in those funds, I just need quarter of a million more to get to the minimum required 😅 (€ 500K).

      Hi Eva!!! The "simple path to wealth with dividend investing" which was inspired by JL Collins is mostly focused on keeping things simple and not over complicating things. You could substitute SCHD/DGRO with other local options that are available to you. There is a lot of red tape when it comes to investing in Europe :( I remember very well. I hope you are doing well!

    I still dont get why people at young age would go for dividends. Less capital efficient and less returns overall. From your 20s to 50s you go ham on growth. Then probably sell for dividend....

      Yeah ideally focus on growth or dividend growth with a longterm time horizon.

    i have two words for you; "life annuities" or term annuities. your principle is protected, you get an agreed interest rate, noo dividend cuts... the stock market is to crap... so many companies paying dividend while dumping shares on the market... little to no dividend.. if you are younger you can buy an annuity that lasts until you can collect retirement funds... or how about mean reversion silver trading? trading real wealth? sure some small percentage in liquid high yielding funds on the stock market... but i would not put all your retirement dreams on this.
