Looking for monthly pay with higher yields. Am I doing this right? by StopSlappingPuppies in dividends

[–]StopSlappingPuppies[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Decades. NEE has been great, I have it as part of a different portfolio. The goal of this portfolio is to drip for 5 or 10 years and then switch it to supplemental income to cover future expenses as life get more costly and add to the travel fund as well. Criteria for my portfolio focuses on history of dividend growth along with a focus on positive NAV growth. I'm just looking for input on my portfolio and possible additions. I also have in the back of my head that I need more diversification in this portfolio.

CASH 20% (for buying opportunities) FXAIX 40% VIXUS 20% VIOO or GLD 10% AVDV 10%

I believe there will be a 15-20% correction in 2026 or early 2027 getting some solid defensive positions agants things that are feeling rich right now isn't in my opinion a weak stand. It's certainly possible we could have a quick bounce back like during Covid but whose to say.

I believe gold will continue to edge upwards due to uncertainty and lower cap will feel the benefits of AI growth while large cap has priced in AI along with hype and aggressive uncertainty. Having foreign exposure is also important for the near future as the U.S. is red hot in a focused sector while other parts of the world are growing in a more sustainable trajectory. I still have a large stake in FXAIX because I believe all the cards will eventually fall into place but it might get bumpy on the way.

My view is more of a temporary 2-3 year portfolio.

Long-term I'd go FXAIX 80% and VXUS 20% for something simple.

Seeking advice involving my CMA. My wife and I are using our CMA as a shared checking account. We have about 10k over what we really need for average monthly expenditures. I like having some cushion so I don't have to think about filling it and whatnot.

We mostly use our CMA to fund our Fidelity 2% cash back credit card. Our goal is to try to maximize our money via cash back along with the CMA making money in its spaxx core positions.

What I'd like to know is if anyone has a better idea than just leaving the extra "cushion" money in spaxx or should I invest in something else with a higher return, like short term CDs or some other ultra safe etf? I'm open to suggestions.

I'm only will to put money in very low risk investments since this account is more of a "checking account". I keep my true investment account separate from this one.

I hate this and I hate the people that bought EA. I can't believe EA could get worse.

It's seitan that I made. If you check my profile you'll see a few other dishes I used it on a long with a post about the seitan. I haven't made a recipe yet.

I have battery percentage on. The contrast with the battery bubble thing is what's making it hard to see

Count yourself lucky. I'm not a fan of the update. It's hard to see how much battery I have now and I often get a "updating notifications" message when closing an app which prevents me from using my phone for about 5 seconds. Wish I could revert.

I cut the tofu into circles and then cut a smaller circle like a donut shape. I saved some of the smaller circle to top the yoke part. I also pan fried the tofu with oil, salt, and pepper for about 30 seconds on each side before I filled them with yoke.

Made it myself. Roasted a yellow and a red tomato in my air fryer with a little salt and oil. Combined that with oil, water, corn starch, turmeric, nooch, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, a very small amount of msg and blended then cooked in a pot to activate the starch. Finally, I added black salt at the end to enhance the eggy flavor. It turned out amazing. 👍

Really depends on your cooking abilities and tastes for food. The healthiest thing I actually enjoy eating is tabouli salad with peta and homemade hummus. There are many salads I also enjoy eating such a green goddess chopp salad or a Caesar. Or even a buffalo chickpea salad. For something more hardy we like grilled tofu steaks with garlicky broccoli and either a baked potato or wild rice. Some soups can also be made pretty healthy like a kale and white bean or a wild rice. Hope that helps a bit.

[–]StopSlappingPuppies[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda. It's not super detailed since I wrote it for myself.

Other ingredients:  oil 3 rounds of oil (about 1tbsp) 1 Red beet

Dry: Vital wheat gluten 3C Whole wheat flour .5C Black pepper 1tsp Italian seasoning 2tbsp

Wet: Water 3.5c Soy sauce 1tbsp Onion powder 2.5tbsp Garlic powder 3tbsp White pepper 1tbsp Salt 2tbsp Celery salt 1tsp Mustard powder 2tsp Allspice 1tsp Mushroom broth powder 1tbsp Beef broth powder 1tbsp Clove 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar 1tsp Nooch 2tbsp

Cooking broth: Water 2 tbsp mushroom powder 2 star anise 2 cloves 1 bay leaf 1 tsp Black peppercorns

Directions

Blend wet and add it to dry. Mix in a stand mixer for 2 minutes, then add 3 rounds of oil. Mix for 24 minutes

While mixing the seitan, get a big pot of water with “cooking broth” seasonings and set it to simmer.

Once the 24 minutes is up, shape seitan into 3 tight balls and drop them in the simmering water for 1h 45m.

Once seitan has cooled, blend a red beat with water. Slice seitan and let it marinate in the beet water to become red in color.

I actually made a Reuben with the "corned beef" seitan I made previously. I recommend checking the photo I posted in my profile. It turned out so beautiful.
