I was over on Telegram chatting with @ZackerySprague about assets that yield monthly and quarterly dividends.
I thought it would be cool to post some of my favorites that I've invested in over the years, including some of them I currently own as well.
If you're looking to get a taste of passive, money-system dynamics, you can buy any of these assets and have your brokerage account automatically deposit the income into your bank account.
Or if you really want to go old school, have them send you a monthly check. I was doing the monthly check for YEARS and just recently stopped doing it (it would delay the funds by at least a week).
See below. Now I just do a direct deposit.

Even if you're only receiving $200/mo, it really is a fun exercise to witness the "money for nothing" dynamic.
IT IS ADDICTIVE!!!!
This is why I don't own physical rental real estate.
It is simply TOO EASY.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE AND NOT A RECOMMENDATION TO BUY OR HOLD ANY SECURITY. FOR TRANSPARENCY, I WILL NOTE WHICH ASSETS I CURRENTLY OWN, AND THOSE I DO NOT. ALSO, THIS AN EXERCISE IN HOW TO RECEIVE 100%, HANDS-OFF PASSIVE INCOME REQUIRING LITTLE TO NO MANAGEMENT. IT CAN BE ARGUED THAT MATHEMATICALLY, IT IS MORE PROFITABLE TO JUST BUY THE SPY/SPX AND DOING SYSTEMATIC BUY/SELLS, AND THEN DISTRIBUTE THE INCOME/GAINS ... THIS ASSUMES THAT THE SPY/SPX CONTINUES ITS STEADY RISE AND REQUIRES SOME BUY/SELL ACTIVE MANAGEMENT. THE POINT OF THE MONEY SYSTEM IS 100% COMPLETELY HANDS OFF INCOME, SOME OF IT TAX FREE.
Here are some of the assets I own, or owned.... assets with an X are assets I DO NOT own currently, at the time of this post.
This list was crafted thanks to GROK - AI which was awesome in helping format this list. This would have taken me a few hours to do, but thanks to GROK, it only took 20 minutes.
