Focusing on high yield pure dividend stocks is a mistake. My portfolio mostly consists of growth blue chips that yield around 1% to 3%. Currently own about 17 stocks which all pay dividends with the exception of BRK. I have a lot of money in index funds too.
Comcast may have grown its dividend the most in the years I've owned it.
Here's Boeing's dividend payout for the past decade. I don't buy the usual IHUB junk pennies and I hold my stocks for years.
