Anybody here creating passive income using dividend stocks? Is it worth the hype? I am currently investing in CD's at around 5.2% on Treasury Direct and wondering if I should instead invest in dividends?
Just beginning to look into those and looking for suggestions or maybe real estate dividends

I will look into it! Curious, why not tech stocks and what are the factors you considered while picking these?
Also, what made you get into dividends? Is it primarily better returns or is there more than that?
Is it worth the hype? Yes!

Having written that, it depends on things like if you are trying to build up enough dividends to retire off of, so knowing what your financial goals are, and around how old you are would be helpful.
My 401k allows you to have a brokerage account and dividend stocks are great investments in a retirement account.
I look for stocks mostly reit that can give 9 to 10 percent yeld. HRZN is my go to because it pays its dividend monthly.
