Fractional Shares and Zero Trade Fees have completely changed the investing landscape

Prior to these two being available you had to accumulate a decent "war chest" before it became worth making a trade

I want to show you how these two things have impacted my life

👇👇
I am 31 Years old with twin 19 month old girls

I currently invest $150 per week into a taxable account with dividends

My plan is to use this money

1. Kids Education (starting as early as high school)
2. Weddings - 25 years from now
3. Real Estate

👇👇
Being able to buy great companies with no fear of trade fees or having the money in the account for 1 full share has changed the game

10 years 👉 $118K Principal - $6k Annual Dividends

20 Years 👉 400k - 20k

30 Years 👉 1.1 Million - 54k

👇👇
These numbers are at $150 / week

What happens when we go all in on this strategy

Say we use $250/ week

20 Years 👉 708k principal with 35k annual dividends

Sounds like we could pay for some real estate down payments, weddings, and a decent % of education

👇👇
I believe in dividend investing because of the cash flow & tax implications

Could you get a higher rate of return in growth stocks - Yes

Should you invest in both - Yes

Partial Shares and No trade fees changed the game
