Added to V, LMT, BTI, AFL, APLE, PNW, STOR, NNN, and LAND.

Nice to see when I do retire, I can ignore it and just collect the dividends.  And a nice trial run to see how it would perform when I do have to ignore it.

As long as you retire during a bull market.  I'm just kidding.   A well rounded DGI port can be ignored if life gets in the way.

It's what I'm working on building.  In case something happens to me, wife can get a job and have the dividends help support her and the kids until she can retire.  Or even better once we're able to retire, we can travel as much as we want and have the dividends keep piling into the checking account to support our lifestyle.

That's the dream!  I just have to convince my girlfriend.  She doesn't plan to ever retire if she can help it, which could possibly leave me trying to round up friends to travel with.

Had an interesting talk with my Dad the other day.  He said he noticed his mobility start to decrease at age 63, and that accelerated at age 73.  Makes me want to get all my travel in sooner rather than later.
