I'm Russ - a Navy veteran turned industrial loading dock equipment installer and tech from Chicago who barely scraped through high school.
Back in 2018, I stumbled into dividend investing and it changed everything. Started with a negative net worth and made every rookie mistake in the book (yeah, I chased those juicy high yields - don't do that!).
I'm no guru - just a regular Midwest guy learning as I go. With 25 years in the field, I see investing different than Wall Street and academic types. I share my actual trades, mess-ups, and wins because hey, we're all figuring this out together. Your feedback helps me grow too.
I'm about 80% of the way to being a blue-collar millionaire. Not bad for a kid from lower middle-class Chicago! Join our no-pressure community, grab my FREE newsletter at dapperdividends.com and feel free to email me - russ@dapperdividends.com
