| Dear Reader, Google ‘ASX dividend stocks’ and you’ll be swamped with a tsunami of options. Everybody’s writing about them. Every company with a dividend over 8% is a ‘great buy’. In an income-starved world, you don’t have to work too hard to get clicks in this department. However…it pays to take a contrarian mindset here. The obvious solutions are rarely the best ones. Especially when it comes to income stocks. There is a smarter course of action than the easy pickings offered up by the investment press. Just buying whatever is supposedly ‘the best dividend-payer’ might pay off in the next quarter or two. But ultimately it could turn out to be a fruitless move. The highest dividends can be fool’s gold in this current climate. The same goes for sheltering your capital in the bank. The current official inflation rate in Australia is 7%. With fuel prices rising by 9.5%. The very best savings account in Australia right now won’t give you more than 5%. You do the math. You will LOSE GROUND…even with the historically high rates on offer…if you stay in the bank too much longer. We have an alternative solution for you. A six-stock portfolio that provides good income…but with a special twist. Click here and you’ll see what I mean… Regards, James Woodburn,
