I’ve been keeping a big secret from you.
I’ve been keeping something big from all of you (not investing-related, more so life-related). It hasn’t been easy staying quiet, but I wanted to make sure everything was official before saying a word.
I'm excited to tell you that the wait is over and the coast is finally clear! Instead of just spilling the news here, I did you one better—I filmed a quick video to make the big reveal.
Right now, we’re knee-deep in the middle of earnings season. As I’m sure you can imagine, depending on the results, share prices can either soar or sink in a big way. That brings me to L’Oréal (LRLCY), my top dividend stock to buy in November, which also took a hit after its recent earnings report.
When you buy a new stock, the best-case scenario is never having to sell it, allowing you to sit back and rake in that dividend income for as long as you live. Now, while the idea of holding a stock forever is fun to think about, reality usually has other plans for your portfolio.

The more you spend, the more you have to earn just to maintain that standard, and before you know it, the stuff you own starts controlling you instead of the other way around. This leaves you in a position where you're more dependent on the income from your job when you should be working toward the opposite.
I tend to categorize dividend stocks into different groups, and have come up with four of them based on their general yield and dividend growth rates. In my portfolio, I try to strike a balance between these four groups.
The Ownership Dividend by Daniel Peris is one of the best books I've read in a while. This is why I think it's a must-read for all dividend investors.
