deserttrd4x,
Welcome to the forum, good to see another young investor on the board!
I don't have time for a long post right now, but at first glance, it seems you are focusing more on the dividend than the growth.
At 35, you have many years of compounding to go until retirement. Place your focus more on the quality and type of business you are partnering with rather than the yield. Shoot for stocks that are growing at double-digit rates that can continue doing so for years ahead.
Some names of those types:
ABT, ABBV, AMGN, SYK, UNH, ZTS
CMCSA, HD, LOW, NKE, ROST, SBUX, TSCO
COST, DG, CVS, HSY, MKC
AOS, CMI, CSX, HON, LMT, NSC, WSO, UNP
AFL, AMP, BLK, ICE, PRI, TROW
SHW, APD
AMT, DLR, CCI, EXR, O
AAPL, ADP, AVGO, INTC, LRCX, MA, MSFT, NVDA, TXN, V
AEP, AWK, NEE, UGI, WEC, XEL
Good luck!
