A stock purchase on the very first day of the month. What’s new, right? You know me. Available capital and a high-quality dividend growth stock at an attractive value are like a marriage made in heaven. Free cash might feel nice in the pocket or the wallet… and it actually smells pretty nice, too. But it […]

I’m incredibly fortunate to stay busy on the stock purchasing front, with May being a blockbuster month in terms of fresh capital deployment. Most of my attention this month has been focused on REITs, adding to my positions in W.P. Carey Inc. (WPC) very early in the month and then just a day later Omega Healthcare […]

I’m incredibly fortunate in that cash flow this month has been really solid, which has allowed me to be quite active in terms of deploying capital and picking up shares in high-quality dividend growth stocks. This most recent purchase wasn’t really planned, as it’s a stock that’s not on my watch list for this month. […]

Fresh off of hearing Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger speak in person, I feel like I’ve never been more inspired or motivated to reach financial independence. I know there’s a me that exists in the future that’s already financially free, and the me of today is simply doing what’s necessary to bridge the gap between the […]

First off, I want to thank all of you readers out there that purchased my book – you guys made it the #1 best seller on Amazon right now for Kindle e-books in the Stock Market Investing category. Thank you so much! With that said, let’s get into some stock talk.  I was fortunately able […]

Buying high-quality dividend growth stocks is just really one of my favorite pastimes. Much like someone might love to engage in a shopping spree at the local mall, the stock market is my “mall” and stocks that pay and grow dividends are my “merchandise”. I foreshadowed this stock purchase, like I usually do, when I […]

Always feels good to get the first stock purchase of the month in, doesn’t it? Every dollar working on my behalf means I’ll have to work that much less in the future. And since money doesn’t sleep, get tired, or get sick – unlike me – I’d rather my money work for me rather than […]

I’ve been a little busier this month than I planned on, which is certainly not a bad thing. After the return to the car-free lifestyle, my available investment capital has been a bit higher than I anticipated even just a month or so ago. And since I favor cash flow over cash to a substantial degree, […]

It feels really great to be in a position to continue to put fresh capital to work! Stocks across the board aren’t cheap, but I’m fortunate in that, as a dividend growth investor, I’m only buying one stock at a time. Thus, I only need to find one attractively valued stock at a time. Much […]

I’ve invested fresh capital in high-quality dividend growth stocks just about every single month for almost five consecutive years now and I can’t quite remember a time when I felt that value was so hard to come by. That’s not to say that attractively valued stocks are extinct, but rather that they’re a rarer breed than […]
