Why Dividends Matter, Even The Little Ones
Dividends provide a reliable income stream, especially during tough economic times, alleviating financial pressure without the need to sell shares. Persistent inflation makes dividend income increasingly valuable, as it offers stability when market returns are volatile or negative. Investing in well-established, high-yield dividend companies with strong cash flows can ensure a steady income and reduce financial stress.
