Can You Retire on Dividends?: The True Crown Jewel of Your Career: Financial Freedom, #268
By Joshua King
()
About this ebook
Building a dividend portfolio is more important than achieving career goals. I know this is contrary to popular opinion.
When you retire, all that matters is how much passive income you have arriving in your accounts. Therefore, building a massive dividend portfolio should be at the top of everyone's mind.
This mindset also allows us to do whatever we want for our careers or professions. All that matters is that we build our dividend portfolio to support along the way.
I had a pretty amazing career in the Marine Corps (24 years), but my dividend portfolio is the crown jewel of all of those years. I can keep growing my dividends, even in retirement, and that makes me very happy! Good Luck!

01 Can You Retire on Dividends?
I spent 20 years in the workforce, not knowing what to do with my money. I thought that my 401 (k) was my emergency fund, and I believed that putting money in a standard savings account was enough.
I was wrong on all accounts, and my family suffered because of my ignorance. Our household dealt with much more stress because I did not have the information.
Luckily, in 2019, I got my act together. I became a dividend investor, and my family got roommates and paid off our debt. We were even able to retire in 2023.
The Importance of Treasuries
My takeaway from this experience is that everyone should learn about dividend investing as early as possible. A dividend portfolio is the crown jewel of one’s career, even beyond career accomplishments.
Your career versus a dividend portfolio. I had a pretty successful career in the United States Marine Corps; I retired as a Master Gunnery Sergeant (E-9) after 24 years of faithful service.
My military pension is a wonderful bonus prize for the years I worked. However, I wish I had invested in dividends for those 24 years.
As it stands, my military pension pays me $9,000 per month, and I earn $2,100 monthly from dividends. If I had started in 1999 instead of 2019, I could have had a massive dividend portfolio.
I say this because I want everyone to start dividend investing today; dividends are your actual career goals. When the dust settles, all that matters is how much passive income you earn from your various investments.
Retirement vs. Financial Freedom
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what career, profession, consulting, business, or freelance gig you choose to perform—it all comes down to growing your dividend portfolio.
"The Millionaire Fastlane" calls this your money system, and Robert Kiyosaki calls it portfolio income. You can call it what you want, but it’s vital to know before entering and exiting the workforce.
