Could Investing $100,000 in Realty Income Make You a Millionaire?
Realty Income (NYSE: O) is one of the largest net lease real estate investment trusts (REITs) you can buy. It is not an exciting stock, but it is a reliable one, with 30 years of annual dividend increases under its belt. It probably won't make you a millionaire all on its own, even if you invest $100,000 into its shares. But don't pass by this stock without considering what it can do for your portfolio.
One of the biggest problems that investors face is dealing with their own emotions. As Warren Buffett has said, it only requires average intelligence to be a successful investor -- but beyond that, in his view, what's really important is emotional stability and the ability to think independently. But investment fads that eventually implode -- like meme stocks, for example -- show that these are not traits that everybody poses.
