If you were going to retire during “normal” times, you’d be able to buy bonds and collect safe fixed income. Unfortunately, the current Fed is not our friend. Its “low rates forever” policy means we must look elsewhere for yield. 

​

How about dividend-paying stocks? Well, the blue chips don’t pay much more than 2% or 3%. On a $1 million portfolio, that’s less than $30,000 in annual income! Not enough. 
 

There’s a better way.

 

Income investing experts Brett Owens and Tom Jacobs will show you how to safely double, triple and even quadruple these yields. Turn the 2% that stocks pay into 6%, 7% and even 8% (for $80,000 on that million bucks) without doing anything risky. 
 

In this book, Brett and Tom will take you beyond Wall Street’s “blue chip BS” and create a portfolio that can actually generate meaningful income. It’s a “no withdrawal portfolio” that relies entirely on dividend income and leaves your principal 100% intact. 
 

As you build this perfect retirement portfolio, you’ll trade in your overrated exchange-traded funds (ETFs) for higher paying and undervalued closed-end funds (CEFs). They are a better vehicle for buying stocks and bonds and for securing higher yields. You’ll also buy under-the-radar stocks that pay big dividends, such as recession- proof REITs (real estate investment trusts).
