Stock & Bond Investing in Your 20s - Financial Freedom, #131 - E-book - ePub

I got married and started a family at age 25; I then got into massive debt. What I needed was income. Creating an income-investing portfolio in your 20s is paramount to surviving the family phase of your life. The goal is to leave our 20s with a $1, 000 per month of dividend income. That requires quite a large amount of money ($150, 000 at an 8% dividend yield). To level out our portfolio, we can add savings bonds, treasuries, index funds, and dividend growth stocks.
But make no mistake; this is the time to grow a paycheck outside of a job. Good Luck!
