Schwab and SCHD, Amongst Other Things

     So you probably already know that ETFs, or Exchange Traded Funds, are groups of investments that are sold on the stock market like individual stocks. But they are managed funds, usually with low costs, and are particularly helpful for adding diversity to investments. 

     SCHD is one of my two favorite ETFs. It has holdings in a large number of diverse companies that are reasonably well protected from recession. It has extremely low expenses at 0.060%. And if you were to invest $100k you would get back over $3k a year in dividends. That's not bad. 

     Did I mention that having a gamut of stocks that pay dividends is my personal investment strategy?
