Look, there are two strategies being fought over here lately - dividends vs. growth.

I'm a proponent that growth stocks are simply better because you can pick ones that offer a good risk/reward ratio.

Dividend stocks are great, but to get the kind of gains I get with growth stocks, I'd have to spend a lot of time on that portfolio, which I don't want to do. And I just don't trust titles with a 20% dividend, don't get mad at me.

What do you think about this? 🧐 I respect anyone who goes pure divi investing because I know I wouldn't give it a go. 😀

I see a certain "security" in divi shares but again, from my point of view, you need millions of capital to make some interesting numbers... The fact that I barely make enough a year from dividends to feed an average dinner in one person's house doesn't really bother me and unfortunately my portfolio doesn't have the "power" for a bigger parade yet :)

And that's where I see the problem - most investors don't have enough money to make dividends make sense

I understand and agree with you in part. I try to have a portfolio composed of dividend stocks, value stocks and growth stocks.

That's a sensible strategy

And why not have both?

Well, it depends on how one wants to spread out one's portfolio

So it depends on who is a capable investor 😀 Some people can't afford to take risks, some people can't take risks, and some people are good at it. I'm all for a mix of both while I'm young, but over time I'll be steering it towards safer stocks, so dividend stocks mostly.

I understand and agree - dividends only make sense to me if it throws me some nice money each month, not 400 crowns.

I'm a proponent of a strategy that meets my investment approach and delivers me sufficient yield;) I hope I don't go back to splitting wrong/right stocks based on whether they pay/do not pay a dividend.

I understand, I don't split stocks accordingly either, but I feel like a lot of people would rather take a zero growth stock with a 4% divi than a growth stock that delivers that 10-12% a year like it's nothing.
