Is Freedom Possible With 500k?

Most would say no. It takes millions.

I say yes with the right strategy.

Here’s how. 🧵👇 First forget the hoard $VOO shares and withdraw 4% attitude.

That’s the old playbook.

This Era is about income.

I’m 26 and I’m pulling in $3400 per month in dividends.

That’s $111 per day passively.

In 2025 financial freedom can be achieved with less capital than ever.

Here’s how I do it and how you can too. 🧵👇 Most people think you need millions to retire. The truth is you need far less. 📉

High yield funds aren’t your grandpa’s dividend stocks. 👴🏻

They sell options contracts for you on the world’s best assets such as Bitcoin & NVIDIA. 🟧

🔥 The High Yield ETF Starter Pack

3 ETFs paying 27-60% yields that turn your portfolio into a monthly paycheck machine:

Here’s exactly what they are and how they work 🧵 First, let’s kill a myth:

You don’t have to sell shares to live off your portfolio.

These ETFs pay you cash every single month / week and they’re built to do it for years.

Stop Reinvesting dividends! Do this instead.

If you auto drip your dividends you are missing out on massive upside.

Being more hands on will lead to much higher gains. Here’s why. 🧵👇 High yield funds that yield 50-100% are all going to decay over time.

While total returns will still be great you’re missing out on a ton of upside.

The cheat code is moving half of your dividends to growth & lower yield funds.

They told you all high yield funds have NAV erosion.

They are wrong.

So Your Interested in High Yield?

Debunking All Misconceptions 🧵👇

NAV Erosion:

Always the critics first complaint but rarely truly understood. As you’ve probably noticed not all high yield funds but many have a down trending chart. The income is generated through capping the upside while you still have full downside. This creates the downtrend. But what isn’t understood is that true NAV Erosion is when total return is negative.

Here’s an example of two funds with what is claimed to be “NAV Erosion”. This is why I say you need to view these through a total return chart.
ROC: “But your just getting returned your own capital”

ROC is traditionally seen as a red flag because it means a companies dividend is your own money being returned to you. With high yield funds that is not the case. This ROC is actually structural not destructive.

Yield Max does what they can to avoid conditions that cause options premiums to be considered income and taxed. This makes ROC a huge advantage. 100% ROC? Guess what you’re most likely not paying any taxes until your initial investment is house money.
