Retirement should be a time of financial peace, not stress; yet, for many soon-to-be retirees, the transition from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40147003/rich-dad-poor-dad-author-robert-kiyosaki-sees-wealth-accumulation-in-market-declines-markets-are-cra">wealth accumulation</a> to income generation can be challenging.
The pressure to restructure the portfolio, ensuring it generates sufficient <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44461718/high-income-earner-with-3000-monthly-to-invest-faces-big-decision-i-definitely-want-to-diversify-beyond-ai-and-dividends">income</a> to live comfortably, is immense, more so when market volatility looms. For those with low-risk tolerance, the task is even more daunting because the wrong move could mean returning to work or cutting back on living expenses drastically.

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.

Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msdl#NYSE">MSDL</a>) shares rallied 5.4% in the last trading session to close at $24.13. This move can be attributable to notable volume with a higher number of shares being traded than in a typical session. This compares to the stock&#39;s 3% gain over the past four weeks.
With the Federal Reserve expected to cut the rate once later this year, the financial services companies are in the spotlight. Hence, Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund is likely to see an increase in demand for loans from its portfolio companies and new entities as they realize higher rates are here to stay for longer. Thus, this drove the MSDL stock higher.
This company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.63 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -6%. Revenues are expected to be $101.6 million, up 14.3% from the year-ago quarter.
While earnings and revenue growth expectations are important in evaluating the potential strength in a stock, empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
For Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock&#39;s price usually doesn&#39;t keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on MSDL going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
The stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund belongs to the Zacks Financial - SBIC &amp; Commercial Industry industry.
