I have been reading about the REITs for awhile now, and while I knew this particular subset had done well since the crash, I never fully understood why. After following you for awhile now, I have to say that you are a great teacher. Perhaps you should write a book? Also, I appreciated hearing that a couple of people have done well with the covered calls. What I am concerned about now is this: Here I am finally thinking of buying these after being in fear for the past year, and while Navellier's system still rates NLY, for example, a strong buy, Dr. Leeb, who has this in a portfolio for one of his services, just told folks to sell it. What am I missing here if I am interested in these few REITs for the high yield as well as to do the covered calls? In other words, I would like them for the next four years while Barney and friends remain in office. I appreciate your reply. Travis, thanks for all this great information.

Barney and the gang are there for four more years. Safe as you can get for this generous return!!!!

I suppose you may still be able to get a check in the mail for your dividend for some companies, dunno. Just the dividends — some pay monthly, some pay quarterly.

Do I just buy some shares of a Mortgage REIT, and they just send me a check in my mail? Or is this "check" just the quarterly dividends?
