How Fast Can You Retire With Dividends?
from Dividend Investing with Longacres Finance · host Longacres Finance
How to retire with dividend income? It can be quite easy or difficult and this all depends on how fast you'd like to get there. The most important factor to the equation is your savings rate. Of course what you invest your money into and the stock market play a role but the one factor you have the most control over is your savings rate. Essentially the higher your savings rate the quicker you will be able to retire. It can take a long time to retire off dividend income if you are only saving 5-10% of your income. Mainly because these savings need to grow to a sum large enough to replace the 90-95% of your income that is used to fund your current lifestyle. I present a few examples in this episode of the savings rate you need to retire in X number of years. I also talk about my personal take on retiring with dividends and why I'm not in a hurry to get there. I hope you enjoy!
