Own 3 utility companies and 3 gas or energy companies, using the same investment strategy. Build those stock positions while you are employed to ease the monetary burdens when you retire. Build a stock market portfolio that will provide you a dividend check every week of the year. All it takes is twelve companies that pay a dividend.
