The Swiss_Mouse’s company had layoffs yet again.
In 15 years of working for this particular man, the Swiss_Mouse has survived something like 17 or 18 reductions in force.
His number will come up one day. Oh it will come up. There is no justice. Others who should have been canned long ago continue their climb up the corporate ladder, all the while the Mouse’s cube keeps getting moved further and further underground.
All the more reason to work on cheddar ideas.

Have you considered picking up some high yielding dividend stocks to lock in some extra income?

Yes, definitely.
The Swiss_Mouse worked this to his great advantage last year. It was one of the reasons why he posted a net-worth gain in 2007 of 14.63.
He’s sure he made even more in Mrs. Swiss_Mouse’s IRA.
The Swiss_Mouse is having a senior moment, he may have posted on this before. He has invested in the past in: AAV, GHI, USA,LXP, FRO and others.
HOWEVER even on high yields, he puts trailing sell stops. Almost all of them fired and sold all his holdings at during the 4th and 1st quarters this year.
Right now he is sitting on cash. A little AAV, USA and LXP.
You are right though, high dividend income is part of the Swiss_Mouse plan to provide tasty cheddar when the Mouse is toothless in old age.
