Happy to join this community after being a passive reader for more than a year. I've learned a lot from you.
I'm a lawyer in my mid 30s seeking financial freedom through dividend growth investing.
I used to be quite active on the Bogleheads forum where investing in individual stocks in considered blasphemous lol
I recognize that my preference for dividends is emotional, not purely financial or rational. I like the comfort of a steady income stream. I don't want to "lose" my financial independence to the wild gyrations of Mr. Market that may slash the value of my index funds lol.
My long term goal is to reach $40,000 in annual dividend income. I started my dividend portfolio on May 2020 and my current projected dividend income stands at $6,622.
BTW I'm also active on twitter as Dividend Hummingbird for those of you who are active on that social network.
Anyway, thanks for reading and happy to be here.
