When investing in stocks for their dividends it is important to know what you are getting yourself into.
Some stocks on my dividend stock tracker looks to be screaming at you with 8%, 9% or 10% yield.
You may fall into the trap that you will tell yourself:”If I purchase this stock no matter rain or shine, its going to give me around 9% forever.”
The bad news is that this is not always the case. Some companies will operate in a way that they will be able to do that, some would not. Why is that?
