on dividend paying ETFs
"If memory serves, WisdomTree ETF's in the U.S. have a "dividend" series which may be of interest. Personally I have the VIG ETF, but want to look at some other more focused opportunities when I can get to faster Internet than the hotel here in Ubud, Bali. "Eat, Pray, Invest..."

Eoin Treacy's view Thank you for alerting the Collective to this fund. I like the optimism of your routine since I suspect more investors "Eat, Invest, Pray…". Bali is a wonderful place for macro scuba diving particularly in a few weeks. The Mid-Autumn full moon tide should attract even more of the exotic critters into the open where divers can see them.

There are a number of additional dividend paying ETFs in the Chart Library. Some of these are the WisdomTree LargeCap Dividend Fund (DLN), WisdomTree Dividend Top 100 Fund (DTN), WisdomTree Total Dividend Fund (DTD), WisdomTree MidCap Dividend Fund (DON), iShares DJ Select Dividend Index (DVY), PowerShares HighYield Dividend Achievers (PEY), PowerShares Dividend Achievers Portfolio (PFM) and First Trust Value Line Dividend Index Fund (FVD).The last of these is perhaps the best performer and holds an international portfolio of high yielding shares.
