Whew! I just finished filing our 2016 tax return. It's so nice to get that load off my shoulders! Each year at tax time, we contribute to our IRAs. Because I am 56 and my husband is 64, we each contributed the maximum amount of $6,500.
Now for the fun part! Which dividend stock should we buy with our IRA money?
First, a little context. My husband and I have a target retirement date of December 31, 2020. (When work gets me down, I chant "3 years, 9 months" to myself.) Our dividend growth retirement portfolio, the Dividend House portfolio (shown below), is comprised of 64 stocks.
