This board won't get a following unless it showcases ultra high yield div payers, complex risky stuff utterly inappropriate for most retirees. Stocks such as mREITs and BDCs that pay 15%... and collapse with every economic downturn. IHUBbers fall for those every time.

Frankly I was shocked to see an IHUB group devoted to sensible blue chip div payers... like those I own, Such shares pay growing dividends and often appreciate.

General Rule: Shun stocks yielding more than 5%. RUN from anything yielding double digits. 1%-3% has been the sweet spot for overall performance for the past decade.
