95. Dividend Investing: Not Just for Retirees

Market MakeHer Podcast

What are dividend stocks and how do they work for you in your investing portfolio? Maybe you already know what a dividend is, but do you know how to actually use that knowledge to build a better portfolio? In this episode, Jess Inskip (the investing expert) breaks down dividend investing in a way that finally made it click for me (Jessie DeNuit - the novice). We’re not just learning what dividends are, but how they can support different investing goals.

We talk about:

• How dividend stocks differ from growth stocks

• What makes a dividend stock high-quality (spoiler: it’s not just about yield)

• The key dividend dates you need to know so you actually get paid

• How to look at Beta when choosing dividend stocks to smooth volatility in portfolios

• How dividend stocks can add income, stability, or reinvestment power to your strategy

Whether you’re investing for the long haul or just getting started, this episode will help you see dividends as more than a bonus—they’re a tool. Learn how to use them wisely. ✨
