Income Investing

---

The key to this strategy is to find well-established companies that have a
steady stream of income. Take note that when you invest in stocks, you
become a part-owner of a company business. This makes you entitled to
receive dividends. When you use this strategy, you should look for big and
well-established companies that no longer seek expansion. Instead of using
the company earnings for the expansion of the business, these companies
pass dividends to stockholders. A good example of this kind of company is
Johnson & Johnson.
An important note when you earn income from dividends is that in most
states such earnings that you receive from dividends are taxable at the same
rate as wages. Therefore, you can expect for a higher tax than that imposed
on capital gains. Check the laws of your state to be aware of the tax laws
that may be applicable in your situation.
 
Stock Mastery
This strategy is something that you adapt for a long period of time. The way
this works is that you need to choose a particular stock or company, and you
need to study it every day until you have a really good understanding of
how that particular stock works. Take note that the more you know
something about a stock, the better that you will be able to predict its
behavior — and this is the key to profit. Should you choose to use this
strategy, take note that this should be a part of your day-to-day activity as
an investor. It is worth noting that you should not rush in making any
investment. Remember that you are not obliged to place an investment.
Therefore, to increase your chances of making a profit and avoid losing
your investment, only make an investment when you are sure that the
chance of success is high. Otherwise, just wait it out until you find the best
time to invest.
