I'm usually not one for contests, but when Elroy brought it up, I ran two of my old scans and picked the four best looking charts. A one time deal. Haven't made any changes. I think I was as low as #37. We all look at different things as important. More important than the "yield ons" to me is how much my dividend growth tops the inflation rate. I've built higher yield / slower growth first. Now going to just adding lower yield / higher growth should help going forward. I've come up with no way to quantify what to aim for. Have you given any thought to this? And later on, if spending the dividends instead of reinvesting, what to expect / shoot for as the increasing "withdrawal rate"?
