Hey folks,
Newbie investor here working to invest towards enough capital to start a business. I use Robinhood and currently have, what I think to be a fairly diverse portfolio (40% bonds, the remaining split between VOO, VNQ, VB, VGT and VCR).
What I'm wondering is if it doesn't just make more sense to throw most or all of my money into SDIV and just reinvest the dividends into additional shares. It seems like a really reliable way to get at least a 6-7% return annually with little to no risk given its stability, not withstanding any growth or declines in the price of the fund itself.
This seems kind of too good to be true so I'm wondering if I'm just misunderstand how this would work. I add $700 a month to the portfolio and split it among my current positions, but just wondering of changing my strategy could offer more reliable returns.
Thanks!
