[QUOTE="Finner, post: 1073122, member: 21046"] Hoaxster posted a good list of companies with 3% dividend or more. And as he stated that list is just a small representation. Though there is always a greater risk with individual stocks when looking to capture a good dividend. Lucent is one that was widely held stok that no longer exists. Others are gone or only valued at a small fraction of what they were a number of years ago. Another way to capture a good dividend is with a mutual like like Franklin Income, a fund that holds bonds, high dividend stocks, preferred stocks, etc. Over last 10 years the yield (dividend) averaged about 6% and 10 year average return per year was 9.5%. Templeton Bond Fund is another that pays a yield of close to 6% and has average annual return of 11% for last 10 years. Vanguard Dividend Growith is another. Dividend is 2% but 10 year average annual return is 9%. There are many more funds with track records, dividend yield and overall returns just as good. So individual stocks, mutual funds, or other, there are many investment options that over time will likely pay a dividend of 3% or more and have the potential to grow in value as well. Of course, UPS has always been a good investment, though since going public it has more or less only been a good dividend play as the 10 year growth since going public has been tepid. Growth in earnings will drive the stock price. [/QUOTE]
