5 good questions and 5 very good answers. I see SCHD as a stock screener and not as a basket of stocks. It re-screens every March which has worked well over the lifetime of the ETF. Lots of folks are upset that AVGO got canned. If you want AVGO, buy it individually. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it crashes and gets included back into SCHD in March 2025 or 26.

You summed it up a lot more efficiently than I did! People fall in love with stocks and/or companies and SCHD has no emotions, that's part of its value :) AVGO is a good company but not at any price.

If you do another video like this, here’s my question: your current yield of 11% seems very high (unsustainable?) by historical standards. While the free money era was far from the norm, what were these investments yielding before the fed funds rate rose by 5% recently? Thanks!

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

I agree. 11% is higher than normal, after all we're in a high interest rate environment. When rates drop, the yields will too. I can't predict the future yield but I would estimate that it would be closer to 9% and perhaps I'll be withdrawing more like 7%. Fed isn't in a rush though so I'll keep collecting 11% for now :)

@169Tomh Ай бұрын

Thank you for the insights armchair guy I certainly wouldn’t mind you doing more of these if you can find enough valuable topics. I have one question and one that seems to have some potential controversy. I follow Adrian of passive income investing he like you has retired but even younger. One thing he says is that NAV erosion is bullshit. He’s made two videos about that I’d love to hear what you think about his argument, I think it’s partly just the term🤔 as apposed to lose of investment capital. Interesting interpretation either way. Enjoy the pho love that stuff😜 safe travels !

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

I like some of Adriano’s investments and ideas but not all. He’s willing to accept more dividend cuts and NAV erosion than I am. His blended yield is probably higher than mine. Both approaches can work. I don’t know his exact stance on NAV erosion but it shouldn’t be ignored. If NAV erosion continues indefinitely then eventually there will be no principal left to generate income (assuming no reinvestment of dividends). 1% NAV erosion and 10% dividends is still a net of 9% total return but requires reinvestment to be sustainable. Flat to rising NAV is my preference but ultimately, Total Return is the best measure.

@falconbritt5461 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for this, please do more QA in future (but don't stop your other great content, which is so very helpful!). I had been pondering stop loss orders too. Warren Buffett said something to the effect of, "Losing gains is sad, but losing capital is devastating." My IRA is so small (yet must last me for so many decades!) that losing any sizable amount of my capital can have serious long-term future consequences. I wonder about setting a stop loss around not 5% but maybe 20%. Losing more than that of my capital, it seems to me, could prove hard to regain/recover from.

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

It's a good point. Buffett said something to the effect of "Rule 1, don't lose money. Rule 2...see rule 1". I prefer to focus more on diversification than stop losses, based on the assumption that 35 different investments in different areas won't all take a massive hit at the same time (and if they do...ie pandemic....they will recover). It's partly an emotional question...what allows you to sleep well at night. If you know that you won't lose more than 20% and that makes you feel good then it can be the right thing for you. That kind of volatility doesn't bother me so I don't use stop losses.

@RonnieM90 Ай бұрын

BUCK is another interesting ETF. It now has a yield of almost 12%.

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

Thanks for the suggestion. BUCK is new and its payout history is volatile. The 12% is the result of them recently doubling the distribution. Haven't done a deep dive on that one but based on the performance of HIGH (which I jumped into too quickly and later sold), I'll wait to see if the 12% is sustainable.

Interestingly, IToo retired in June of 2017 due to my husband passing away and since he had been paying for everything with his accounting practice which went to my son, it was time for me to take the savings and brokerage accounts abd make them pay me while growing the corpus simultaneously. Had a rough start of 5 months in 2022 and gave not quite returned to my November high in 2021 but with the new option based ETFs I think it won’t be long now.

Can you do a video on expense ratios since you are heavily invested in income funds? KZfaq inventors constantly say watch out for those high expense ratios that are over .5%. Are they really that expense to invest into over time? Also if you had to start over with your investment journey would you start out with the growth method, dividend growth, income investing or do a mix of all? I constantly go back and forward on which should I do. I prefer income investing, but seeing how growth stocks and ETFs compound so much so quickly draws me towards that.

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

A lot of good questions in there. When you're young and the investment journey is long, growth offers more tax efficiency and higher total returns over the long term. Also, over decades, minor differences in expenses make a difference. As retirement approaches, income becomes more important than making the biggest "pile". If I had my time again I'd start with growth (which is what I did) and then I'd transition to income gradually about 5 years before retirement (instead of waiting until the last minute). For expenses, the net total return is more important to me than trying to pay the lowest possible fees. Each asset category and fund is different so its hard to make sweeping rules that cover everything. I'll try to address these topics in more detail in future videos.

@UNOyay Ай бұрын

Newbie question here - is the yield of a fund calculated net of fees? For example, if JEPI has a yield of 8%, should you then subtract the fee % you pay? Or is the yield your total yield after fees have already been subtracted (hope that makes sense).

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

The fees have been subtracted before the yield is calculated. You receive 100% of the advertised yield.

@user-xq9wk6ft4o 2 ай бұрын

So with your 8% rule for a fund like SCHD that doesn't pay 8%. Does that mean you take the 3+% dividend and sell enough SCHD to make up your 8%? And then sell about 4% (assuming a total annual return of 12%) to invest in something else? Thanks

@unorthodocs1 Ай бұрын

No. He doesn’t hold assets that yield that low. MAIN is exception in the 6% range.

The person below is correct. My blended yield is higher than 8% so I don't sell anything unless it 1/ Goes up in value so much that the yield is too low or 2/ Changes the business plan and becomes an undesirable investment. I don't sell to pay bills or based on short term price fluctuations.

is it okay to invest like this 10-20 years before pulling the income, basically creating the growth from reinvestment?

@armchairincomechannel Ай бұрын

That's partly a personality question. If dividend investment makes you more happy/motivated, and keeps you on track with allocating funds to investing then that's great. When you're that far out from retirement though the tax efficiency and long term growth are better with growth stocks. So in general terms, growth is better for accumulation and I prefer income for preservation/distribution (ie paying the bills).

Good video. I am pretty sure SPYI is going to behave different than your JEPI example in way of distributions over the years with NAV not recovering during pullbacks in S&P vs the vix for JEPI. I know I go against the grain saying SPYI is going to upset people, but if people like their distributions to decrease over time then hold SPYI. No need to debate it just watch. SPYI will go up as well with nav upside but nav will staircase down over the years.

@AmeriGlobal 2 ай бұрын
