I have ABBV which is good and at a low price right now. INTC is very cheap with a low PEG and a good dividend but I would like to buy it around $48 if I got lucky. :smile:

I'm thinking about building a dividend portfolio. The list is long of potential buys. I need more tech companies on it too, if anyone has any suggestions. Let me know what you guys think on these picks. Which are you favorite? Which do you hate?

3M 1.95%, ABBV 2.95%, K 3.27%, HON 1.92%, XOM 3.69%, Aflac 2.05%, JNJ 2.78%, ABT 1.74%, EMR 3%, CSCO 3%, IBM 3.9%, Qualcomm 3.6%, PG 3%, Verizon 4.5%, JPM 2.1%, KO 3.45%, MKC 1.78%, PEP 3.23%, WMT 2.36%, SWK 1.88%, GD 1.89%, LOW 1.92%, MCD 2.56%, TGT 3.23%, TROW 2.31%, FRT 3.23%, T 6.31%, AAPL 1.51%

A couple years ago I put together a diversified dividend portfolio of 20 stocks that paid me exactly 5% dividends last year. I guess I couldn't stand success though and steadily sold them off. Almost all of them are below the price I sold, so it's worked out so far. I'm just moving to a different strategy for a while in preps for retiring soon and moving so am building/preserving cash since I think we're getting closer to a significant market correction of 20% or more. Anyway, these were my picks and include some of yours. If/when I rebuild the portfolio in retirement I might juice it up even a bit more with stocks like TYG and one or two more preferred stocks.
SO, DUK, PFF, ORI, GAIN, T, O, VTR, STAG, OHI, HCN, JNJ, WFC-PL, PG, KO, PM, CAT, MCD, RDS-B, VLO

Twitter just got smashed too. Down 20%. Gotta think there are a lot of buyers at that level.

I like the EFA (I fund) chart much more than the SPX (C fund) right now, and I don't see that changing for at least a few months, maybe a year. I made a late IFT to 100% I fund, so it will be effective tomorrow. That's fine, maybe I'll catch a little bounce tomorrow to recoup some of the losses from yesterday and today.

Looks like the I fund is about to get slaughtered today. ;swear

The C & S Funds aren't doing too much better.

Even the F Fund is negative right now.

Anyone know of any pure silver military challenge coins? I don't think I've ever seen any, and I'm looking online and don't see much either. I'm thinking about getting a Navy Chief challenge coin custom made in 1oz pure silver. Would there be any interest here on a bulk order?

When I was an Air Force recruiter, my squadron would give us a one ounce silver coin after we earned our first silver/senior recruiter badge. It was pretty neat, but I dont think they do it anymore unfortunately.

That is awesome!

My local gold center has them with the branch logos/mottos but nothing unit specific. I think they also do specialized gold coin stamps but don’t remember seeing military ones.

Did you make Chief???

 

[bmneveu]

Did you make Chief???

Sure did

That was the big reason why I went inactive in the crypto channels. I didn't have time for anything during the season. I was 2 weeks away from finishing a college class when results came out. It was an easy class (intro to statistics) and I still barely hung on. It was so rough I ended up cancelling the class my next course. Results came out August 7th, I pinned on Chief September 14th. Best day of my life since my daughter was born 2 years ago. I took 2 showers that day, got drunk on 2 beers and slept 14 hours that night.

Understand completely, congratulations Brother! I was accepted in 2001. I will stop by when I get back, sorry I missed all the festivities and the ceremony

 

[PessOptimist]

Congratulations Chief!

Back to the original question. I would be interested, depending on the design...
