How Much Do You Really Need Invested in Dividend Stocks to Replace a $25,000 Income?

Quick Read Generating $25,000 annually from blue chips like JNJ (1.96%) or PG (2.99%) demands $714,000 to $836,000 in capital but delivers 64 to 70 years of consecutive dividend growth. Realty Income (O) at 5.3% cuts the required capital to $500,000, but its REIT structure makes it vulnerable when 10-year Treasury yields sit near their trailing highs. A dividend growing 6-8% annually doubles income in 9-12 years without adding capital, making compounders like JNJ outperform static high-yielders over time. Just released.
