Resumen del Editor

The Fed today is not our friend. Its "low rates forever" policy means we must look elsewhere for yield. Dividend-paying stocks don't help. Blue chips don't pay more than 2% or 3%. On a $1 million portfolio, that's less than $30,000 in annual income. Not enough. There's a better way. Income investing experts Brett Owens and Tom Jacobs show you how to safely double, triple and even quadruple these yields. Turn that 2% that stocks pay into 6%, 7% and even 8% (for $80,000 on that million bucks) without doing anything risky.

In this book, Brett and Tom will take you beyond Wall Street's "blue chip BS" and create a portfolio that can actually generate meaningful income. It's a "no withdrawal portfolio" that relies entirely on dividend income and leaves your principal 100% intact.

Bank 8% income without worrying about interest rates, the Fed, or the economy at large. Learn how to retire on dividends alone and keep your capital 100% intact.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A must-read for any investor looking to find safe ways to get meaningful yields with principal protection. If you're looking for a way to construct an income portfolio that consistently churts out 6%-8%, this book is for you." (Jeff Remsburg, Editor, InvestorPlace)

"As a podcast host with over 300 interviews I can recognize when someone is knowledgeable and prepared, which describes Brett and Tom's work." (Charley Wright, Strategic Investor Radio)

"If you're retired or nearing retirement, this book is for you. Due to Fed interest rate policy, you'll be lucky to get 0.5% or $5,000 per year on a million bucks. You need to find a better way. Brett and Tom will point you to corners of the markets where you can earn a safe 6%, 7% or 8% return. That means you can withdraw safely $60,000 to $80,000 in interest and dividend income without dipping into your $1 million principal." (Richard Fields, retirement expert and investor)

Excellent

overall excellent review of the subject matter and investing with closed-end funds. Definitely worth the time and money.

Sound and workable financial system

We have been following this system for a year now and it delivers what it promises; safe income producing investments that allow you to live comfortably and avoid risk. The book is clearly written but you will need a basic understanding of the stock market to fully get the strategy.
My husband and I actually listened to the audiobook while following along with the printed book. It’s almost word for word but the hardcover book includes a number of interesting charts and graphs.
We found it helpful to take the time to look up any financial terms we didn’t fully understand or were familiar with. It also helped us to do some quick research on the funds mentioned in the book using our online brokerage portal.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who want a low risk, high income strategy to fund their retirement.

Great listen

I learned a lot about dividends. With this information, I’ll be using to maximize my dividend portfolio.

excellent book thank you

will be looking for more information on investments I hope you have more books

Eye opener

This is the right book for people that have accumulated a good amount of money either through growth stocks and savings. Even to sell their business and put there profit it in high yield investments. It’s focused on cef and reits. I’m not close to retirement yet so I’ll be putting a big part of my money on growth stocks and eventually sell and put in these investments mentioned. Great read and eye opener to maximize profits in retirement.

Valuable Information

The book is an excellent guide for investing and obtain a meaningful return. It is Smart, Cautious.

Excellent Book

This book really opened my eyes to alternative strategies like Closed End Funds and BDC’s. My investment strategy revolved almost entirely around blue chip dividend aristocrat stocks, but my overall income/yield amount for the effort and amount I had accumulated was unimpressive (3% - 3.5%).

My main focus is on growing passive income without ever having to dip into principe, and this book has shown me multiple safe strategies to double or triple my income from my portfolio. This information has been invaluable!

great book

very educational easy to understand. would recomend to anyone wanting income for retirement. great job

solid retirement investment strategy

Brett and Tom do a great job at explaining the bases and motivation of their "8% no-withdrawal portfolio" (and Tom is an excellent reader, very pleasant and clear). however, to actually execute on this strategy I think you'll want to purchase Brett's newsletters (starting at $99/year but you might get a special-offer discount), or have Tom manage your portfolio (if it's at least$100,000). as for me, since I love self-managing my money based on sound advice, I've signed up for the newsletters and plan to try them out for at least a year or two!

Great info on some strategies for investing

I found the book useful for investing in general with dividends. I believe some of the information is a little basic but was good to go over the detail again. I’ve written a lot of notes and will follow some of the strategies given in the book.
