There is nothing wrong with this, as long as it works for you.
That said, companies that consistently pay dividends are some of the most stable companies to invest in. These companies pay dividend to send a clear, powerful message about their future prospects and performance. Their ability to pay steady dividends over time provides a solid demonstration of their financial strength.
Being retired, I like investing in dividend stocks, bonds, and pretty lingerie. After all, no man has ever gotten excited by seeing my portfolio.
