In 2000, after an investment advisor lost $300,000 of  my life savings in a mutual fund,  I set out to find a safer, better way to invest the money that remained.  The solution was to first become a self-directed investor. Next, it was to build a portfolio of the  20 best, financially strong companies that paid  dividends of 6% or more.  There are 628 stocks paying dividends of 6% or more on the NYSE and the NASDAQ,

 To help me select the best 20 companies out of the 14,500 stocks available in North America I built stock scoring software for myself.  In this podcast we explore the first three of nine important information items that go into this score.  The three we review today are the stock's current price, its historical price and the recommendations by stock analysts. 

I have lived very well off my dividend income for 16 years as I watched my portfolio more than triple despite my taking a good monthly income out of it.  You too can achieve financial independence as self-directed investor.  My quest is to help as many investors as I can to achieve this objective.
