Does anyone also save Ares Capital $ARCC (+0,32%) with Scalable? This is the second month in a row that the savings plan has not been executed.

No information as to why. And the customer service doesn't answer either.

All other savings plans are being executed as usual, but not this one.

Hello everyone,

For some time now I have been wavering a bit about my dividend portfolio, whether I should use the 6 ETF savings plans (always staggered distributions for monthly cash flow) are not too complicated. About me: I'm in my mid-thirties and the aim is to build up more and more net monthly salaries through dividends over time. I enjoy looking at my bar charts in Portfolio Performance over the years and seeing how they get bigger and bigger every year compared to the previous year. For this year, I expect to earn around €3,700 in dividends with my current portfolio.

The Morningstar X-Ray already shows a lot of stock overlaps. The aim was always to combine 2 ETFs per interval with 1 each with high distributions + and 1 each with growth and to have good diversification:

January, April, July, October

$ISPA (+1,12%) + $EXX5 (+0,57%)

February, May, August, November

$FGEQ (-0,08%) + $IMEU (-0,2%)

March, June, September, December

$TDIV (+1,23%) + $VHYL (+1,36%)

+ $O (-1,04%) + $MAIN (-0,5%) + $ARCC (+0,32%) + $VICI (+1,85%) + $HTGC (+0,9%) + $BATS (-0,58%)

----- ----- -----

The ETFs have a value of approx. 15,500€ per interval, the REITs + BDCs below together approx. 31,000€. I would also like to invest in savings plans with dividend growth shares, whereby I want to proceed according to certain criteria: https://aktienkoenig.de/starke-dividendenaktien-mit-dem-dividenden-check-finden/#elementor-toc__heading-anchor-3

Would you simplify the dividend ETFs and reduce them from 6 to 3 or replace them if necessary, because that is overdiversified anyway, or should I rather "shut down" some of them and continue to save only 3 of them increased? I am basically undecided at the moment as to whether I should focus on higher dividend payouts or rather higher dividend growth. At the moment, I think it's all mixed up.

Ares Capital $ARCC (+0,32%) has been on my shopping list for a long time and now I've treated myself to a bite.

The expectations are manageable, because I don't see high price gains now. Rather a boring stock for the long bank.....

2024

I would like to reach €15,000 by the end of 2025.

As I have an annual commute of 22,000 km, I'll have to buy a new car in 4 - 5 years' time if my current one no longer works.

In addition, several positions were sold in Q3 - Q4 ($O (-1,04%)
$BATS (-0,58%)
$SIX2 (+1,25%)
$ARCC (+0,32%)
$CVS (+0,48%)
$UNP (+1,16%)$NESN (-1,64%) ) and the focus was also placed on higher growth and dividend growth.

In principle, I have nothing against $UNP (+1,16%) but I see the growth opportunities at $CP (-0,71%) higher as well as a higher profit margin as soon as the acquisition of Kansas City has been optimally integrated into the company in order to work more efficiently.
