VDIGX/FDGFX or Stock Portfolio
« on: February 05, 2017, 08:30:07 PM »

Trying to figure out the pros and cons of investing in a Dividend Fund like VDIGX/FDGFX or creating your own dividend portfolio.  I'm thinking about making monthly contributions which seems to lean toward a dividend fund.

Will Vanguard open back up their VDIGX fund?  Is there some type of break even point between investing in a fund verses creating your own portfolio?  Is there X number of funds per sector you need in order to reach a certain level of diversification?

Is there a book, link or information that covers this topic?   

Thanks,

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
