Yield only 1%

$IUSA (-0.52%) For me, and my journey to FIRE, i'm looking for Higher yields then this one.

I try to collect Investments which starts with >4% ROI.

Maybe i'm wrong, but can you explain why to buy this ETF with less return as an ordinary savings account

The chart says 400% since 2006. What savings account do you have that has a higher return?

@Chandra Okay understood, but i'm looking for a cash flow for my groceries. But you're right if you look to Total Return. Thanks for your reply

Investing is not like parking money in your savings account🫣 You should always have a look on total return, not only on yield. If you want to get paid out regularly you should go for dividend focused ETFs, high yield ETFs or covered call ETFs🤷🏼‍♂️ You simply compared the „wrong“ metrics😅
