The more difficult decision is choosing which yield assumption to use, because higher-yield strategies often involve tradeoffs that may affect principal value over time. Monthly-paying dividend ETFs can make this approach more practical. Most expenses arrive monthly, so many investors prefer distributions that follow the same schedule instead of relying on quarterly payouts.
