Then I found Dividend Mantra's site and the light kind of clicked that this is how to get around the 4% rule and still keep your principle in tact. I'm so glad that I've helped pave the way with others taking control of their future as well.Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212994770135535473.post-24820656259483503142013-11-26T22:08:37.135-05:002013-11-26T22:08:37.135-05:00Nice question how did I start.

It only took me some time that day trading, swing trading won't get me there. It was because I horribly misunderstood dividends and their power and power of compounding those dividends.

My dad helped start me and I would buy cheaper more risky stocks that didn't work out so well as often. Then I found dividends and stumbled across DRIP plans in my online brokerage account a few years ago. I don't plan on looking back.<br /><br /> Although every once in awhile can't say I won't try a risk/reward play with trying to make gains by using an option or a high momentum growth play to boost availability of capital to buy more shares of a business.Dividend SWAN Investorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02768581207435543717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212994770135535473.post-72906180885088856102013-11-26T09:18:34.428-05:002013-11-26T09:18:34.428-05:00I got started at the age of 20.

I said no and by late 20s I realized what that cost me.<br />2008 happened and I lost half of my money. I looked at the holdings and saw dividend companies: KO, JNJ, PG but never received a dividend.
