For those of you interested in becoming knowledgeable about stock dividends and how a dividend focused approach to investing can be quite usefull, regardless of whether you are retired or not, I can recommend a book, by Josh Peters (an equities strategist for M*).  The book is entitled, "The Ultimate Dividend Playbook: Income, Insight, and Independence for Today's Investor".

Basically, the book shows how the current dividend yield of a stock, as well as it's dividend growth rate, can be used to estimate it's future return.

Hi ElLobo,

I am glad to hear you finally received your book.  I think I remember you saying it was tied up in Limbo, Your son was hogging it up in Alaska or something like that :o)

Glad to see you endorsing it, it was a great read.  I still have not gotten around to ordering Josh's newletter.  Too cheap I guess!  I am surprised your son did not claim it was lost or something so he could keep it in his own library!  It was your son right, sorry if I am mistaken.

So, I recall you saying that this would be your first investment book, or were you just joshin around?  How did you become so knowledgable in investing without reading any books?

Thanks in advance and always enjoy your posts.

Best Regards,

Brian

I inadvertently had it shipped to him, in Dutch Harbor, Alaska, rather then to my home.  It would have cost him over $10 to ship it down to me, but he, his wife, and the grandkids live in Oregon 5 months of the year, so he simply brought the book down a few weeks ago.

All 7 of us have been on vacation for a week now.  We drove down to Disneyland, went on a 4 day Mexican cruise, are spending a few more days in Disneyland, then we drive home tomorrow.  I read the book on the cruise.

My son is a gold bug.  Not much investment maturity there yet!  There's still time.  8-))

I did buy one financial book 15 years or so.  It was on worldwide investing, and it talked about stocks, bonds, real estate, and cash.  I bought it as I researched the indexed versus active fund management issue, and I was into efficient markets and frontiers back then.

Josh's book was my second purchase.
