As I suspected, you're a trader. There's nothing wrong with that but it helps explain your posts. As I said before, I'm more of an investor but I do trade to lower my cost basis.
As far as I'm concerned, you have to have a huge portfolio before it makes sense to become a dividend collector. I prefer growth stories. You say: "my goal is 30% and moving on." In what time frame? 10 days? 10 years?
