WIth this episode I discuss dividend income.  Stocks that pay dividends tend to be less volatile as they are more mature companies.  In a time of volatility these are great additions to any portfolio.  If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

In this episode I discuss what to do as we near the possible end to the volatility as a result of the tarrifs.  My dicussion focuses on your state of mind as an investor as opposed to pure metrics.  This is slightly different approach but sometimes it's a good idea to step back and gain some perspective - there will always be opportunites in the market.
