Are You a Dividend Growth Investor or an Income Investor?

The most challenging part of investing is picking a style and sticking with it through thick and thin. I am a buy-and-hold investor; I never plan to sell any shares.
More specifically, I am a buy-and-hold income investor. This means I buy securities with the express intent to receive high-yield dividends.
I also dabble in dividend growth investing. The purpose of DGI is to buy and ride the coattails of notable companies as they grow in value and pay increasing dividends.
Each style has its merits, so understanding the advantages of each will help you decide. But you can also be like me and choose to do both. They say variety is the spice of life. Good Luck!
