Dividend Income

  1. Great job! I’m from Spain and also investing towards financial independence.
    Thanks a lot for the Euro Dividend All-Stars. I was just looking for that.
    Can I share the list on my blog with credit to you?

    1. Dividendos,

      Of course! As long as you make sure to link back you can use the information anyway you see fit. 🙂

      Best wishes,
      NMW

      1. Hi, just wonder, where can i buy share that give me dividend, i’ve done some research online, but no one really mention dividend

        1. s27y,

          I’m not really sure what you’re asking, but if you’re looking for companies that pay dividends on a sustainable basis, you could take a look at David Fish’ USA dividend aristocrats, Tyler Witten’s UK dividend champions or my own Euro Dividend All-Stars.

          You can buy them on their respective stock markets through a broker or your bank.

          Best of luck,
          NMW

          1. s27y,

            I have experience with Binck Bank and Bolero in Belgium. I recommend both. If you wish to use Binck hit me up through the contact form since we could both receive referral credit.

            DeGiro is popular too because it’s cheap, but comes with some drawbacks. I don’t like that they’re allowed to swap your shares with other financial institutions, for example.

            Cheers,
            NMW

          2. Hi NMW

            I want to open an account in Binck Bank. Let’s get those 100 EUR of referral credit for transaction costs.

            They need your full name and date of birth.

            I’ve sent you already two messages through contact section. Not sure if you have seen them?

            Could you please contact me by email to arrange this?

  2. Hi NMW,

    Perhaps we both can take advantage of a good referral system too? I’ll be looking around myself but I guess you already are with a decent broker so perhaps we can both profit from that?

    Unless things have changed and you can refer me to a better one?

    cheers
    Mr2

  3. Great progress!

    Any reason you are not using accumulated index funds (IWDA?) where you would not need to pay any % dividend tax? Capital gains tax is 0% in Belgium so why not take money 1x per year or not at all until the time you need it?

    That 30% dividend tax is hurting your growth rate and potential. Not paying the taxes today or ever would increase your compounded rate immensely.
