“Pause to enjoy your dividends, but never stop growing your capital.” – Wafa Kuchera, Trigrams Investments
Dividends are a reward for disciplined investment, signaling that your money is actively working for you. But they should not be seen as the finish line.
A healthy portfolio should provide income today while continuing to build value for the long-term. This understanding is what unlocks the real power of capital markets, which is compounding returns, reinvested earnings and steady growth over time.
Use dividends wisely to meet immediate needs, celebrate milestones or create financial breathing room but always keep an eye on the bigger picture. Ultimately, true wealth creation is about what you retain, reinvest and responsibly grow.
