buy dividend stonks with low debt to asset ratios
Dividends generate taxable events whether desired or not. Picking individual dividend stocks is riskier than index investing and diversifying across hundreds or more companies. Dividends just reduce underlying value of stock by distributing to stock holders. I'd rather choose when to sell and invest in companies that use profits to grow my investment. Please dont teach your kids to chase dividend yield its a short sighted approach for those that think it's better to never sell shares.

Dividends provide an income stream. You can't benefit from a non dividend stock unless you sell it. Which isn't a bad move but now it's gone.
