Coffee Can Dividend Portfolio

A lot has been written about dividend stocks in the past year. According to Google Trends, the search and news volume for the phrase "dividend stocks" has been on the rise, and quite naturally so as income-thirsty investors find few alternatives in this low interest rate environment. I believe boring is beautiful when it comes to dividend investing, but I also understand that there are investors who want to benefit from a long-term dividend strategy while spending most of their time on other, perhaps more exciting, stocks.

For these investors, I offer the "Coffee Can Dividend Portfolio": seven high-quality dividend-paying stocks from different industries whose share certificates I think you could literally stick into a coffee can, bury in the backyard, focus on other investments, and be happy with your Coffee Can returns when you dig it up a decade or more from now.
