[QUOTE=rsmurano;2213797]That’s been true for the last 10 years but if the economy is going to tank like 2097/2008, you will see companies stop paying dividends. Most dividends are in the 2-3.5% bracket, so with the risk of stocks/funds going way down later this year, MM funds that pay 4-5% with no risk is a no-brainer[/Q

this is my thinking too. VTSAX and VTTVX have returns at 5% plus but i sure dont see that in dividends paid. Share price makes up most of that i believe.
