Small amounts add up! 💵 I’ve been investing $5 a day into SCHD since January 1, 2024. Today, I own 185 shares worth over $6,000—and those shares pay me dividends every quarter.
Full update coming soon! Are you investing a little at a time, too?

As of today (4/23/26):
SCHD 👉 +12.2%
VOO 👉 +3.5%

Most people think SCHD only yields 3.4%…But mine is already pushing 4% — and climbing. The difference? Almost nobody talks about it. Watch this before you judge your dividend income 👇

👑 It just keeps climbing.
SCHD is now up 14.4% YTD in 2026.
No drama.
No headlines.
Just steady progress.
This is what compounding looks like when you give it time.
Still adding $5 a day.
