Turn Off Market's Noise And Tune In To Your Goals
A challenge for the dividend investor is separating one's self from all the market noise. Forget the market's daily rumbles. Forget every throat-clearing of the Federal Reserve chief. Most of all, forget about keeping pace with the market on every lap. "As an individual investor, what difference does it make whether you beat the S&P 500 this year?" writes Josh Peters in his newly released book, "The Ultimate Dividend Playbook." If you're making progress toward your investment goals, there's no reason to feel insecure because an index did better the past six months or because a fund manager had a dazzling, breakaway yearly performance and you didn't. The income investor can't afford to get sucked into that game.
Understanding Commercial Leases
Your lease is a contract between you and your landlord. A lease can be for a short term (as little as one month) or long term, and it can be written or oral -- although a lease for more than a year must be in writing to be legally enforceable. Some people use the phrase "rental agreement" to describe a short or oral lease for which rent is typically paid once a month and the tenancy can be terminated on a 30-day written notice. To avoid confusion, we'll stick to the word "lease." .
