10 Best Dividend Paying Companies

Actual Question

What are some reliable investments with steady returns?

I own some stocks in security tech companies but the returns are sporadic at best. I need something that has solid return rates. Plus i hate jumping through hoops for my money.

Answer

Dear Friend!

Thank you very much for raising a very important and useful issue through your question.

As far as dividend returns are concerned there are three vital factors to be considered as follows:

1. Percentage of net profits distributed as dividends by the company as a policy - good companies distribute 25–30%
2. Dividend Yield - or simply the rate of dividend on your investment and
3. Uninterrupted Dividend paying track-record of the company - you have hit the nail on its head when you mentioned sporadic - after all, dividends are the wages of an investor

Here I present 10 good and regular dividend-paying companies:
