Less Time, More Money | The Power of Passive Income

It's True - you don't have to be a major influencer, tech wiz, or from privilege to leverage financial gain. In fact, you could be doing this:


And getting paid at the same time! How?

w/ Passive Income. Passive income is money you can earn with little effort and without working a traditional job; exchanging less time for more Money.

One way to build an income stream is to invest in dividend stocks, which distribute part of the company’s earnings to investors regularly (typically quarterly). The best dividend stocks increase their payout over time, helping you grow future income.



As a bonus, dividend stocks typically are less volatile than growth stocks, so they can help diversify and even stabilize your investment portfolio. Investors can also reinvest dividends back into the stock, potentially increasing your investment if the stock does well.

You can also invest in index funds or exchange-traded funds that hold dividend stocks rather than picking and choosing individual stocks to buy.

This is a form of passive investing for those who prefer a more hands-off approach.

Index funds hold a well-rounded selection of many stocks that aim to mirror the performance of a given index. Ask a Financial Advisor here:

A dividend ETF or index fund will invest in a selection of stocks that pay dividends. Index funds can help balance portfolio risk, as market swings tend to be less volatile across an index compared with individual stocks. Dividend ETFs offer the diversification benefits of index funds while mimicking the ease with which stocks are traded. To invest in dividend stocks, index funds, ETFs or other publicly traded assets, you’ll need to open a brokerage account if you don’t already have one.

This may seem intimidating but do these things to simplify the ABOVE:


1. Download Robinhood App (your handheld brokerage)


2. Transfer $20 USD into your new profile/account today.


3. Choose a selection of (5) Stock or Index Funds - that speak to you.


4. Watch the Dividends ROLL IN.


5. Comment Below or Post and Tag Us. Tell Us How it Goes Next Month!


Sincerely, A Broke Dancer's Guide to Success -



P.S. here is me on vacation March 2024 - after I liquidated USD 300 from my Robinhood account to enjoy time spent on a Catamaran in Bequia/Paradise.

Vulnerability

Lets revert back to our Mission Statement... "We as Women of Excellence are unashamed of vulnerability." Vulnerability is a key component for being a worshipper and a servant of God. Vulnerability allows for intimacy and power of transparency to take over and inspire an onlooker. Vulnerability in our personal relationships is promising; it allows for healing, growth and unconditional love to flow freely. In this ministry video these women touch on vulnerability by way of complete and uninhibited worship. The strength that's needed to live a life of integrity and excellence can only be achieved by having faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for the, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).  Therefore, trusting in the way that defies our circumstances, occurrences and ongoings of the world is possible with vulnerability.  Vulnerability removes that veil of shame or discomforts and gives us freedom to move in accordance to God's says...

Financial Wellbeing | how I healed my relationship to money

  Money, Credit Repair, Debt Cancellation, Credit Worthiness... These all seemed like big words, BIG ideas, BIG goals to me...I'd look at the numbers and feel overwhelmed by the weight of my reality until I began to understand that Money like everything else in my life was a Relationship I had to build and required my full attention. "Money = Choices, Options, Freedom. - Emmy Award Winning Actress, Viola Davis." I started with understanding Money better... I knew what I wanted - but didn't know how to get there. As an Artist, my short-term goals, mainly as a gig worker, were to be able to travel for auditions, afford workshops and lunch/dinner dates with friends & to see shows without hesitation.
