I do not have a favorite dividend stock

I simply stick to my process, invest every month in what seems to be quality at a good price, and then sit tight

My portfolio ends up concentrating itself into the best performing companies after a few decades

But I can rarely predict in advance which of the investments I made would turn out to be the absolute best performers and which ones would turn out to be the absolute worst

This of course goes against FinTwit's "concentrate into your best ideas", but most of FinTwit doesn't make much money investing either...

@jacktonyd Yes, it is.

It doesn't all have to be converted at 18, it can also be staggered over time, taking advantage of low income years early in career

[Dividend Growth Investor @DividendGrowth]

One appealing feature of the Trump accounts for me

Balances can be converted to Roth when your child turns 18

You do not need earned income to contribite and there is a $5,000 annual limit

You do pay tax on the conversion, mitigated by the fact kid is in a low tax bracket at 18

[Dividend Growth Investor @DividendGrowth]

@jshaust The plan is to open a normal Roth when kids get earned income

Trump account is a nice way to potentially stuff a ton into Roth assets for someone without earned income

[Dividend Growth Investor @DividendGrowth]

@proslogionanon That's a good question on UTMA vs Trump Account

Lot's of trade-offs depending on how long you plan to be invested (when you need the money), what you invest in (turnover, dividends) etc

Important thing is to learn the rules, and plan ahead accordingly for your own situation

[Dividend Growth Investor @DividendGrowth]

@TancreRobert In general, yes

When you convert to Roth*, that profit gets taxed too

After that, it wont

*Assumes nothing changes in the future

@thejustinwelsh Not needing to flex to random strangers on the internet is The biggest flex

[Dividend Growth Investor @DividendGrowth]

The world got to where it is, because we compounded our knowledge and get better standards of living over time

Otherwise, it would be like each person being forced to live like a hunter gatherer and making their own civilization from scratch

Same applies for families. Your children and grandchildren etc should be building upon the foundation that you set, and then go from there.
