Can we do this dividend stock thing one more time?

... At your advanced age why are you trying to goose your income?

Duck, I think maybe you need to.

Yep. A duck gotta' goose.

Using Pb4uski's recommended calculator, my dividend portfolio is up 22.35% since Jan 31, 2014. Since February 28, 2014, the dividend portfolio is up 20.33%. The calculator's default for months elapsed is 12, so that is what I used. It is possible that I may have calculated incorrectly regarding the elapsed months.

When I used Morningstar, it said over the period of 2/2014 till now, a $10K invested in VFINX, the S&P MF, becomes $12,911 while DVY becomes $13,549 and SDOG $13,897.

So, I do not see the large performance disparity as the above post. Some Web site is wrong?

Yep either I entered wrong symbols or the info was wrong, sorry about that used stockcharts.com

Is a 2-3 year period enough time to prove the superiority of any investment method or idea over a long (10+ years) period of time?
