This episode might be one of the most controversial because it will challenge the view that dividends and income are meaningful when it comes to investing. Many investors find these to be a vital component of their investment strategy, but Jeff Harrell provides his take on why the yield of an investment is completely irrelevant to him.
Jeff provides examples of investors who swear by dividends, but offers research-backed evidence, as well as personal experience, as to why those beliefs are irrational and ignore the impact of inflation.
Listeners should be prepared to hear a critical take on a popular investing strategy and why it may be more bark, than bite.
