It shows what consistent investing could build over decades: a portfolio that doesn’t just grow — but produces income. Use this to see the power of cash flow, model your long-term goals, and design a strategy that fits your life — not market noise.

How to use this calculator:


Enter your initial investment, choose a monthly or annual contribution amount (if any), and set realistic assumptions for dividend yield, dividend growth, and capital appreciation. Then run the numbers — the chart and results table will project your portfolio’s value and potential cash flow over time. Treat this as a planning tool, not a promise: real-world results vary depending on market performance, dividend policy, and reinvestment discipline. Use it to experiment with scenarios, compare strategies, and build a roadmap toward reliable dividend income.
