Income investing can be risker than dividend growth investing because the high-yield securities are...

Inflation is upon us, so how do we defeat it? I guess we could work more hours at our job. Or better yet, get a second job driving Uber or delivering pizzas. That sounds like a great idea.
I was just kidding. Don't solve your problems by exchanging your time for money. Every time we do this, we'll have to work more hours to earn more pay. It's a hamster wheel that we call the rat race.
Passive income is the answer. We need to build passive income...

I can invest in high-yield stocks and funds and start receiving dividends next month, this is the definition of fast money. However, it takes massive initial funds to see a remarkable paycheck from dividends and income investing. Don't let this fact stop you from getting started. You'll start with an income stream of perhaps $10/month. This will turn into $100 or $1000/month if you keep at it.
The best part of income investing is that you reap the...
