The objection I get every week: how do you retire on a portfolio yielding 1.5%? You build your own dividend. Treat the portfolio as a holding company. You are the CEO, and your job is to pay yourself a distribution. It can come from dividends, interest, fund distributions and capital gains. That puts you in control of two things at once. Which businesses you own, because you are no longer forced into high yield names to hit an income number. And your income, because you set the amount instead of waiting for a board to set it. The dividend still matters. It funds part of the payment and confirms the business is healthy. It stops being the only source.
