I bought (about $2k of each) JNJ, LHX, XOM, and just to compare SCHD,

Thinking of buying O tomorrow.

Hopefully this starts me on a journey I've always dreamed of doing.

Thanks for advice everyone.

That's a good start.  Take your time and try to learn a little with each purchase.  Ask yourself why you are adding a particular stock.  What does it add to the port?  How is the current valuation vs historical?  The timing of small purchases is not critical if you buy quality that isn't extremely overvalued.  You are diversified so far and O is a reliable REIT.

Thanks fender.  I try my best to do what you are saying.  I totally understand that this is all about research and patience.  I have only spent less than 10% of what I have set aside.
