Thanks for the vote of confidence - and the roasting was just tongue in cheek. ;p
I agree about not chasing yield, at first it seems tempting, but it seems probable that you'd end up getting burned at some point! Some of the higher yielding ones are surely still good picks for now, but, how many companies that have had multiple decades of dividend growth started with a high yield?
I still have a lot of learning to do, but hopefully a long while down the line, I'll have picked more winners than losers!
