Jeremy has asked us how do you stay motivated during the boring middle of dividend investing journey yeah I know what he means this to some extent. We take it nice and slow it's meant to be boring when it gets exciting it means just something happening in the market that probably we don't want to happen so exactly exactly keep it boring. Chris uses two different compound interest formulas in Excel calculates how much projected dividends he will have at the age of 65. He wants to own in around 200 different stocks 20 percent foreign 80 percent local and yes they're quite a quite interesting strategy that isn't it.
