In this guide within Bloom Investment Counsel’s Seven Streams of Income series, we are discussing capital gains income—another great income source where your money works for you, and not the other way around. Bloom Investment Counsel actively makes the most of capital gains income on behalf of its clients, strategically purchasing equities when prices are relatively low, and (if the opportunity is right and there is no advantageous long term gain in sight), selling high so that clients can profit from the difference.

Supplementing some of the other types of income streams Bloom Investment Counsel has been discussing in our Seven Streams of Income series (if you missed our last installment, click HERE to catch up!), dividend income is a great way to reach that next level on your financial journey. Unlike some other income streams, dividend income is inactive in nature rather than active—after you or your investment manager have conducted research on which stocks are right for you, assuming you have a long-term position, you get to sit back and enjoy the ride! This is one of the pillar reasons Bloom Investment Counsel is so fond of dividend income—we are of the belief that you can attain true financial peace of mind through the inactive nature of this income stream, while still having time to dedicate to your business, your family, and your life.
