That way I only need to research dividend history and maybe look at operating cashflow/dividends to see how many times the dividend is covered by earnings and hopefully how likely the dividend is to continue. That is in my head no actual steps taken as yet. Also will be implementing this after the next financial market meltdown and ideally at the peak of the next interest rate cycle.

Mostly I just tend to troll baby boomers on this site.
Thanks Aaron, trolling the correct generation how do you know they are a babyboomer, that seems to be a feat as fun as picking the prosperous investment?
