h*t
1 楼
Warren Buffett is one of the greatest investors of all time. He explained in
2006 that one of the best ways of staying wealthy is investing in high
dividend stocks with stable businesses, like utilities. We believe buying
the highest dividend stocks of Buffett's portfolio is a good idea because
they are the stable ones and delivering good income.
Buffett has been holding on to his positions for years if not decades to
minimize taxes. We recommend investors follow a similar strategy in order to
protect their investments and grow their portfolio at modest rates. This is
a better alternative to investing in long-term government bonds which yield
around 2%.
