Where Money, Investing, and Technology Meet
These companies pay high-yielding and steadily rising dividends backed by strong financial profiles. I love to collect dividend income. It provides me with more cash to invest each month and a growing level of financial freedom. My goal is to eventually generate enough passive income from dividends and other sources to cover my basic living […]
Case Study: Land Fund Paying 16% Distributions (I don’t know how that owl ended up with three legs but just go with it) Tomorrow the Co-Investing Club is meeting to vet this month’s investment: a land fund that pays 16% in quarterly distributions. The fund has paid on time every quarter since inception. The operator consistently earns […]
1. Real Estate Photography: Capture Homes, Capture Profits Photos sell properties, and real estate agents know it. That’s why many are willing to pay hundreds of dollars per shoot for professional-quality images. If you have a good camera and some editing skills, this can become a lucrative side business.

You don’t have to look very hard for bad news these days. Even when the stock market and economy are booming it’s easy to find negatives anytime you want. For example, yes the stock market is at all-time highs but this just helps the rich keep getting richer. The top 10% owns 87% of the […]
High Savings Rate The money you don’t spend your savings is the source of your future wealth. In fact, I talk about this all the time as the “paradox of wealth”: the less money you spend on looking and feeling wealthy, the more real wealth you build.

If you’re looking for monthly income, these three high-yield stocks could be the next to join your portfolio. When you retire on dividends, you need to make some material budgeting changes, since most dividends are paid quarterly. However, there are some companies that pay monthly, which is pretty much as close to a paycheck replacement […]
Four Ways to Escape the Trap 1. Use Roth Accounts for Flexibility Unlike traditional retirement accounts, Roth IRAs allow you to withdraw your contributions (but not earnings) at any time without penalty. Since you’ve already paid taxes on those dollars, Roths offer a balance between long-term growth and short-term flexibility. 2. Explore Passive Real Estate […]
Does Any of This Affect How I’m Personally Investing? Not really. I invest $5,000 every month in a passive real estate investment, going in with other investors in the Co-Investing Club.
