SPONSORED The One Proven Path to a "Never-Ending Income Stream" If you're worried about running out of money in retirement... you need to see what two Ph.D. professors have uncovered. Editor's Note: The "ticking time bomb" of inflation not only threatens to erode your retirement but also is poised to take a bite out of hardworking Americans' buying power for years. That's why it's crucial to safeguard your savings. Learning about investing in Perpetual Dividend Raisers is a surefire way to increase your buying power every year. Chief Income Strategist Marc Lichtenfeld recently sat down with Larry Kudlow, an economic advisor to former Presidents Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump, to discuss how "Forever Dividends" can stand up against even the toughest inflationary pressures. Click here to see their conversation for free. This strategy doesn't just benefit you, either. Some investors, looking ahead, tuck funds away to help the next generation - and Perpetual Dividend Raisers are one of the strongest tools available to ensure that those generous savings go further over time. Below, Chief Income Strategist Marc Lichtenfeld tells the story of how an investment his uncle made in 1953 still benefits his cousin today. Read on to discover how Perpetual Dividend Raisers can do the same for you and your loved ones. - Mable Buchanan, Managing Editor FINANCIAL LITERACY These Stocks Could Fund Your Retirement - and Leave Something Special to Your Heirs Marc Lichtenfeld | Chief Income Strategist | The Oxford Club "This will be good for Susan," the man told my uncle. My cousin Susan was 8 years old at the time. My uncle's best friend had recommended an investment, one that he had already put his own money into. For $15,000, my uncle could join a partnership in an office building on 39th Street and 1st Avenue in Manhattan. This conversation took place more than 60 years ago. So while investing for your children is a worthy cause, $15,000 was a large sum. My uncle was not in the habit of throwing money around without a lot of thought. He came from a poor family and had worked too hard since he was 14 years old to be frivolous with his cash. The friend was a successful businessman. My uncle trusted him and followed him into the partnership. The friend was right. It has been very good for Susan. Today, Susan earns $48,000 a year in income from that partnership - more than a 300% annual yield on my uncle's original investment. A 60-Year Horizon Susan is retired now. A former teacher, she has a decent pension with solid benefits. Does that extra $48,000 come in handy? You bet it does. In 2019, she and her husband went on a monthlong cruise to Europe. Their house is paid for, and they can easily handle the cost of long-term care insurance so as not to burden their children should they get sick. They live well, thanks in part to my uncle's $15,000 investment in 1953. The money didn't always belong to Susan. My aunt and uncle collected the income annually from the partnership for more than 50 years. But they never sold it because they knew it would eventually be "good for Susan." Very few of us have a parent or role model who looked so far into the future. As a result, we do not have an investment horizon of 60 years. SPONSORED "The Lifeblood of the New Economy" Is in Her Hand... Over the next decade, the technology in her hand could create as many as 4.6 million jobs... Contribute up to $1.7 trillion to U.S. GDP... And help some people accrue life-changing wealth. Here's how you could become one of them... But we all have a few Susans in our own lives - loved ones who could benefit from our investment skill, but not until we're finished with the investment ourselves. It might be six decades too late for you to get in on that Manhattan office building, but there are plenty of investments out there that will pay you a rising income annually while generating a ton of cash years down the road. How to Do It My favorite way to set up this scenario is with Perpetual Dividend Raisers - stocks that raise their dividends every year. That's because by lifting the dividend every year, their managements have set the bar very high. Imagine what would happen if, after six decades of annual dividend increases, American States Water (NYSE: AWR) did not hike its dividend. As Ricky Ricardo from I Love Lucy might say, the CEO would have "some 'splainin' to do." A CEO who does not raise the dividend after a long streak should probably get their resume together. Investors have come to expect annual dividend increases in these companies, and management teams work very hard to be able to provide them. If, after 20 or 30 years, dividend boosts suddenly come to a halt, that would suggest a drastic change in the company's business or prospects. Let's assume you're generating $10,000 per year in dividend income while investing for your children and your stocks grow their dividends by an average of 8% per year. Next year, you'll receive $10,800. At the historical average U.S. inflation rate of 3.2%, you need only $10,320 to keep up. You now have an extra $480 to save, invest or spend. Lastly, if you're reinvesting your dividends, owning Perpetual Dividend Raisers helps you step on the gas of the compounding machine. Let's say you have a $100,000 portfolio of dividend stocks with an average yield of 4% and it climbs by the historical average of the S&P 500. And you reinvest the dividend. After 10 years, your $100,000 will be worth $278,544 and you'll receive about $5,300 per year in dividends. After 20 years, your nest egg will be worth $668,103. And the portfolio will spin off $6,100 per year in dividends. Not bad, right? If instead of earning a flat 4%, your portfolio starts off yielding 4% but the companies average an 8% dividend boost every year, the numbers increase significantly. In 10 years, you'll have $310,764... $32,000 more than in the first scenario. More importantly, you'll then be generating $11,780 in dividends, more than double what you would have made if the company did not boost the payout. In 20 years, the portfolio will be worth $978,406 - a whopping 46% more than the earlier case. And if at that point you're ready to stop reinvesting the dividend and take it as income, you'll receive $38,290. That's a far cry from the $6,100 you'd get without the dividend increases. That will be very good for your Susan. Perpetual Dividend Raisers are a great way to get some income today and an even larger "paycheck" for your heirs later. Good investing, Marc P.S.
