    if the idea is to build an income stream to use as complement for retirement, or at any given point if needed, then building a dividend growth portfolio always buying adding to it could be a good and peaceful path. On the long run consistency and perseverance could guaranty the desired income stream goal with little worries

    This is excellent information but maybe we need to be more truthful to people concerning who is really responsible for their retirement and the importance of time and actually investing in their retirement accounts. I know you have to say certain things in order to be on the platform, but our people need to hear the facts.
