re: Does anyone invest in BDCs for a fat yield?

Thanks for this thread.

I keep going back and forth on how I want to invest in the market.

I have 3 cash flowing rental properties (5 total including my wife's 2), and I max out my 401k. So this is really just "play money". I invested in Apple, VTI, and the Dogs of the Dow companies. My idea was just to sit on these and forget about them honestly.

Well that all changed a little once I started seeing dividends come in. I might pivot towards REITS and BDCs.

Opinions? Should I pull out of VTI since my 401k is (most likely) concentrating on ETFs? I like to keep my Apple and AT&T because they've done really well and I've received dividends from them as well.

This isn't a crazy amount. Only ~$2200 is being traded currently.
