In today's unpredictable market, investors seeking high yields need to balance risk and reward carefully. With rising volatility, inflation concerns, and fluctuating interest rates, a well-diversified portfolio is crucial to sustaining durable income.

Reddit has witnessed this balance struggle in a post an investor has created. The 50-year-old poster has spent years building a high-yield portfolio in a brokerage account, but now his main goal is reliable monthly income without sacrificing the principal.
The investor is open to various asset classes such as stocks, bonds, real estate investment trusts, closed-end funds, and/or business development companies but wants to avoid yield traps and foreign stocks due to tax complications.
&#8220;I need durable income. [Ford Motor Company (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>)] is a no, it's a yield trap and has been for years. [Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/schd#NYSE">SCHD</a>)] and [Schwab U.S. REIT ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/schh#NYSE">SCHH</a>)] are great funds, but the yield is too low. I own SCHD in my growth portfolio but continue to sell some every year as I convert to income. Also want to diversify away from options. They are great for income but tend to fluctuate as supply/demand does in down markets,&#8221; he said.
His questions to Reddit investors are what high-yield – over 8% – stocks, ETFs, or funds can sustain payouts long-term, whether there are low-risk business development companies or closed-end funds that won't cut dividends in a downturn, and how can he further diversify beyond his current holdings.

Focus on High-Quality BDCs and CEFs for Steady Income
Several commenters recommended business development companies and closed-end funds as core holdings for high, sustainable yields.
&#8220;Two closed-end funds that I like a lot are [Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eoi#NYSE">EOI</a>)] and [Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund II (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eos#NYSE">EOS</a>)]. They have been around since 2005, have mostly favorable tax treatment on their distributions, and have had better total returns than [JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepi#NYSE">JEPI</a>)​] and [JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepq#NASDAQ">JEPQ</a>)​],&#8221; a commenter suggested.

Consider Covered-Call ETFs for Tax-Efficient Monthly Income
Given the poster&#8217;s preference for tax-efficient income, several commenters highlighted covered-call ETFs as strong options.
&#8220;[Invesco KBW Premium Yield Equity REIT ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/kbwy#NASDAQ">KBWY</a>)], [VanEck Mortgage REIT Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mort#NYSE">MORT</a>)], [NEOS Nasdaq-100 High Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqqi#NASDAQ">QQQI</a>)], JEPQ, [Goldman Sachs Nasdaq-100 Core Premium Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gpiq#NYSE">GPIQ</a>)], [NEOS S&amp;P 500 High Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/spyi#NYSE">SPYI</a>)], JEPI, [Goldman Sachs S&amp;P 500 Core Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gpix#NASDAQ">GPIX</a>)], and [NEOS Russell 2000 High Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/iwmi#NASDAQ">IWMI</a>)] are a few. They will probably stay lower during the current volatile cycle, but should do well long term I would think,&#8221; a commenter recommended.
A user mentioned a real estate investment trust option, noting that it pays around 9.5% yield and has a 0.50% expense ratio.
&#8220;Aside from the covered call funds like JEPQ, QQQI, [TappAlpha SPY Growth &amp; Daily Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tspy#NASDAQ">TSPY</a>)], and the like, there&#8217;s a [real estate investment trust] ETF from Hoya Capital called [Hoya Capital High Dividend Yield ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/riet#NYSE">RIET</a>)] with a 0.50% expense ratio that pays about a 9.5% yield and seems pretty steady.&#8221;

Shares of capital market companies are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

A Redditor has shared in a post that he&#8217;s faced with this exact challenge. With just eight months until retirement, the investor, a 62-year-old, has $400,000 to invest and is looking for maximal monthly dividend income with minimal risk.
Although this income won&#8217;t be his primary retirement funding but extra lifestyle cash to supplement his pension, the pressure to restructure his allocations wisely is immense for the poster.
&#8220;I&#8217;m in an odd spot due to exiting a business as a founder. My retirement scenario gets better every year. If I ever need extra cash, it will be in the first 5 years. I have a low-risk tolerance. Or, God forbid, I would need to go back to work if it crashed! It looks like we are in a dip now, obviously a high rate environment. Would this qualify as a better time to buy?&#8221; the investor wrote.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Soon-to-be Retiree Has $400,000 to Invest for Dividend Income–Reddit Weights In</h2>
Invest in High-Quality Dividend ETFs
Considering the investor&#8217;s low-risk approach, Redditors suggested he pick a few high-quality ETFs to invest in.
&#8220;[Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/schd#NYSE">SCHD</a>)] gets you a decent amount,&#8221; a comment reads.
&#8220;[NEOS S&amp;P 500 High Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/spyi#NYSE">SPYI</a>)] and chill,&#8221; says a Redditor, to which another user replied, &#8220;One advantage of SPYI is that its dividends are mainly return of capital. So, the tax is lower than an unqualified dividend from, say a [business development company]. However, if you use a tax-advantaged account like the Roth, that doesn&#8217;t matter.&#8221;
A commenter mentioned he splits his portfolio between two ETFs.
&#8220;I split between SPYI and [JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepq#NASDAQ">JEPQ</a>)​],&#8221; he said.
&#8220;[​JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepi#NYSE">JEPI</a>)​], JEPQ, [WP Carey (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wpc#NYSE">WPC</a>)], [Enterprise Products Partners LP (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/epd#NYSE">EPD</a>)], [MPLX LP (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mplx#NYSE">MPLX</a>)], SPYI,&#8221; an allocation suggestion reads.
A Reddit user wrote that this favorite individual stock of many investors is the perfect choice since it generates a 7% dividend yield per year.
&#8220;[Altria Group (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mo#NYSE">MO</a>)] &#8211; recession resistant, 7% yield. Your $400,000 would kick out $28,000 a year in income,&#8221; he said.

Go For Higher-Yielding Income Plays
Several Redditors suggested business development companies and covered-call ETFs since they deliver around 8% to 11% yields if the investor can handle a bit of risk.
&#8220;High-quality [business development companies] like [Ares Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/arcc#NASDAQ">ARCC</a>)​], [Blue Owl Capital Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/obdc#NYSE">OBDC</a>)], [Golub Capital BDC (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gbdc#NASDAQ">GBDC</a>)], [Blackstone Secured Lending Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bxsl#NYSE">BXSL</a>)], [Main Street Capital Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/main#NYSE">MAIN</a>)], [Capital Southwest Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cswc#NASDAQ">CSWC</a>)], [Fidus Investment Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fdus#NASDAQ">FDUS</a>)]. Average 9% yield,&#8221; a user recommended.
&#8220;[Business development companies] are a solid income-producing asset. This person doesn&#8217;t have decades to wait for growth. They need the money now as they are about to retire and growth was presumably the focus for the past few decades,&#8221; an advocate for business development companies wrote.
A Redditor shared in the comments that he&#8217;s been retired for 15 years and has the biggest part of his portfolio in high-yield business development companies.
&#8220;I&#8217;m 78 and have been retired for 15 years. I&#8217;m fortunate that social security and pensions cover my living expenses. The majority of my portfolio is high-yield [business development companies], [closed-end funds], and [real estate investment trusts]. The average yield is a tad over 10%. In 2022, the total value dropped but less than the DOW or S&amp;P. The dividends kept on coming without missing a beat. High risk they say, high rewards I say. It allows me to spend winters in Florida and yearly overseas vacations. I have zero regrets,&#8221; the retiree said.
