Welcome to Safe Dividend Investing’s Podcast # 272 on April 25th of 2026. 

My name is Ian Duncan MacDonald, and I am the author of 7 investment books. My seventh investment book, Achieving Financial Independence Safely - 200 NYSE Stocks Analyzed and Scored" became available January 3rd on Amazon. You can easily find it by searching in Amazon or Google for "Ian Duncan MacDonald books". For more information on all my books, stock scoring software and podcasts go to www.informus.ca

In this week's podcast I investigate how to safely maximize the income realized from dividends. If investors who did well over six years by investing in the top 20 highest scoring stocks in my my 2020 book "Safer Better Dividend Investing" would their dividend income not have been much higher if they had instead invested in the 20 stocks listed in the book that had the highest dividend yield percentages? I was surprised by what my research revealed.

It is important to do your own research when you are looking for financially strong stocks with long histories of rising share prices and dividend payouts. The stock scoring software that comes with my books helps you in making stock buying decisions. Over the 272 issues of the weekly  "Safe Dividend Investing" podcasts you can get many insights into building a safe strong generous portfolio.
