I don’t make it so hard………..
I read about companies that get my attention for some reason.
I make sure I understand, generally, what those companies do.
I check on a few numbers and trends.
I have to feel comfortable that they can continue to pay a quarterly dividend — and they almost always have to have a very long history of increasing that dividend annually.
I let some patience and a little intuition into my choices. (Yes. I am a woman.
)
Then…….I wait…….until those on my shopping list take a bit of hit.
I bought a few in July.
Happy so far……
BUT, even so, after decades of doing it like this, of course, I know I do not always pick winners. (Yeah, like I said — I am a woman, so I don’t go around talking about how I never lose at this game. In fact, I don’t go around talking about it at all, except on TOTV, anonymously.)
And, sooooo, even if those July buys fall a little in share price, I feel pretty sure those companies will continue to send me money every quarter.
Old fashioned style of investing? Maybe.
But, so far, it ain’t broke, nor am I — yet.
