If you need high yield during accumulation phase you are investing more than you can actually afford. This is why cash buckets exist.
now of course that's assuming one put in 100k ten years ago and didn't touch the money with no dividends reinvested
growth has been the clear winner the last ten years with this bull market--how long will this continue?? idk without the lost decade and the great recession we don't have this massive bull run....will value eventually do better then growth? idk
and we all know one can't go by past results for future gains
sure this thread might be centered towards INCOME for the retirement years but if one has enough money whats the difference if you're getting a 4% dividend or selling shares to get your 4%???
And yes value will come back in style but it's hard to fully appreciate if your growth jusf got a big haircut
