Dont be a fundcuck. Buy stocks

> caring about stock prices

Come to the light, anon. Dividend investors only care about their dividends per year growing, price can rollercoaster all it wants.

>Raped by taxes
Don't do that.

I'm not an americuck, we have no "IRA" where your trade winnings wouldn't be taxed. We also have no DRIP.

Plus, I intend to retire and live on the dividends anyway, a few years down. Putting everything in growth stocks, hoping I picked them right, and then selling to buy div stocks has way more guaranteed risk, in the form of trade fees.

Then don't give financial advice on an American image board. No one cares if you become the wealthiest goat-fucker in East Slavistan.

The rest of us are trying to make in the big leagues.

Let me teach by example.

> you buy 100 of stock XYZ at 15$
> the dividend yield at the time was 5%
> you're now getting 75$ per year from that stock
> surprise, there's a condom shortage in the upper westside London
> this magically affects all companies in that area
> XYZ drops 20% overnight
> you couldn't give a fuck since you're still getting your 75$
> in fact, this is a great time to buy since the company's sales haven't changed

Daaaaaammmnnnn!

>tfw living in upper Westside London rn
>tfw two unused condoms in my wallet for the past year

I've been waiting for these to come in handy. Finally, they may be of use to me! Where do I sell them?

>>1008758
When the stock lowers, the 5% of that stock lowers. You'd drop from $75 per year to $60 per year if the stock price dropped by 20%.

>>1008776
Now you're thinking, anon. You're going to make it. (Sell them at nightclub bathrooms, say they're laced with something if you want to hike prices.)

>dividends decrease with stock price
