There are many different investing strategies. One to consider is buying large, diversified, and liquid ETFs with solid dividend yields. Vanguard ETFs that focus on real estate and international stocks are a good place to look for passive income.

Tech stocks aren’t typically known for their high dividends. However, if you’re seeking high distributions while maintaining tech exposure, a covered call strategy is an excellent option. This approach thrives in tech because of the sector’s inherent volatility.

The Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM) is a popular choice for passive investors seeking steady and reliable income with a low expense ratio of 0.06%. VYM provides exposure to hundreds of dividend payers across a wide range of industries.
