Goals

Dividend Goals

It is said, “A goal without a plan is just a wish”.

Below are the goals that I’ve set to reach my ultimate goal of retiring at 45.

This page will obviously be a working document as these goals will not be achieved overnight (I have almost 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5 years to go).

My plan is to systematically purchase quality dividend growth stocks at acceptable values.  Then take the dividend income generated from the portfolio and put it back to work in more dividend growth stocks.  This dividend machine should be chugging along in no time!
