Plans for Financial Independence


Most of those that visit my blog are working towards a specific end goal, I know I am.  That goal for the majority of us is financial independence.  Financial independence can mean different things to different people.  To me financial independence is the ability to have enough passive income coming in to cover your monthly expenses.  This opens up your options which is what we all want.  To not be a slave to the office because we have to.

Passive income can come from a variety of places such as rental real estate, interest on cash, you can set up target websites to profit from web traffic/advertising, write and sell an e-book, P2P lending, my personal favorite dividend growth investing, and many other possibilities.  There's plenty of other passive income opportunities with a varying degree of passivity.  Most passive income sources require a large amount of initial work and then you get to reap the rewards over time.  The reason that dividend growth investing resonates with me is that it provides a reliable source of income that will grow over time.  Some passive income sources, e-books for one, don't provide the important factor of growth.  They usually have an initially high income that tails off, but that's not the case with dividend growth investing.  If you select your companies properly they will continue to grow over the long term and you can reasonably expect your dividend checks to grow year in and year out like clockwork.
