Dividends of blue chip stocks almost never go down. I’m about to find out how well that works because I just retired in May and I’m going to be living off of SS and stock dividends.
“I just retired in May and I’m going to be living off of SS and stock dividends.”
I retired mid-June of ‘24 and use SS and dividends for living expenses. My portfolio is up 25% since retiring. So far so good but I expect it to not always be smooth sailing.
