More specifi cally, your portfolio should contain a certain percentage of income assets; such as bonds, preferred shares, blue- chip dividends, power or energy trusts, Real Estate Income Trust (REITs), etc. Income investments are designed to pay cash fl ow regularly and consistently, re- gardless of how the market performs. In effect, this continuous cash flow makes portfolio compounding easy, as you can either buy more shares with every dividend, or let the cash balance accumu- late and then purchase another income investment. INVESTMENT EXAMPLES Here are two interesting income invest- ments, assuming a personal rate of return requirement of 7.0 per cent. Crombie REIT (CRR.un–TSX) is the real estate division of Sobey’s, and owns most malls where the grocery stores are located. Crombie has a 7.7 per cent cur- rent yield and income is paid monthly to shareholders. TANITA BC-418 “Everyone is unique.” Especially when it comes to chiropractic medicine – in particular, an individual’s body makeup. Standar scales give a total weight, but they can’t determine the distribu- tion of that weight. Tanita’s BC-418 Segmental Body Compo- sition Analyzer/Scale helps practitioners to quickly and easily assess each individual patient and their detailed body make- up. The BC-418 calculates regional body composition, empowering health-care professionals to better diagnose and treat mechanical disorders of the spine and musculo- skeletal system. More than simple weight or body fat % levels provided by ordinary scales or calipers, the BC-418 pr printout of detailed body composition analysis – weight, imped- ance, body fat %, body mass index, fat mass, fat-free mass and more, all without the inconvenience of more intrusive traditional measurement methods. The scale also introduces a signifi cant improvement to the calculation of Basal Metabolic Rate. Instead of simply relying on weight, age and gender, Tanita’s proprietary formula takes into account fat-free mass, providing a higher level of accuracy compared to current BMR formulas. The all- in-one compact column mount design, with integrated thermal printer, makes the BC-418 perfect for use in small, dedicated spaces. Other features include: • Composition results for fi ve body segments – trunk, left arm, right arm, left leg and right leg • Useful in evaluating rehabilitation and/or strength and conditioning programs • 8-polar Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) • Adult and athlete modes • Weight increments: 0.2 lb (0.1 kg) • RS-232 port for computer interface • Capacity: 440 lb (200 kg) For more information, visit www.thecompetitiveedge.com. www.canadianchiropractor.ca Bombardier Preferred Series 4 (BBD. pr.c–TSX) has a 7.0 per cent dividend yield. The shares currently trade at $21.50 and carry a par value of $25.00. Par value is the value you receive if Bom- bardier decides to redeem this series of shares. This strategy becomes twofold: earn an attractive 7.0 per cent dividend yield while you wait for the potential capital gain from $21.50 to $25.00. STAY FOCUSED Your investment success is not a popu- larity contest – and it doesn’t have to be complicated. Undoubtedly you will hear exaggerated cocktail chatter that Mr. Glee beat the market. Do not let his comments sway you. Stay focused on your family’s required rate of return and stay commit- ted to your plan. Your financial future, lifestyle, and sanity, all depend on it. • Disclaimer: The comments in this article are for illustration purposes only. Future performance is not guaranteed.
