ankarb/iStock via Getty Images Co-authored with Beyond Saving In ancient Greece, major cities had an "agora," which was a public space where people were free to congregate. It served as a marketplace for people to trade goods and services and as a gathering point for public announcements, the military, religious ceremonies, and more. In many ways, an "agora" is no different from what might be called a "town center," "square," or "market." Every society has its public spaces where people get together for various purposes. What made the agora of ancient Greece distinct was the openness and popularity of philosophical and political debate. It was in those agoras that Socrates and Plato made their marks on the world. One of the things I love about the internet is that it allows for the spirited and open debate of ideas. The internet is our modern version of the agora, where we can seek out to challenge our ideas and honestly debate the merits of an issue. The issue I would like to submit for discussion today is "total return." It's a concept that many people love to talk about in the comment threads. It is a concept that I believe is routinely misapplied. Let's discuss. Total Return Vs. Dividend Investing Many love to argue that there is some difference between "total return investing" and "dividend investing." The reality is that there isn't. A dividend is total return. In fact, a dividend is realized total return. The total return of an investment is: Total Return = (Price you sell + dividends you collected) / price you paid If you sell at $15, collected $0 in dividends, and paid $10, your total return is 50%. ($15 + $0) / $10 = 1.5, a 50% gain. If you sell for $10, collected $5 in dividends, and paid $10, your total return is 50%. ($10 + $5) / $10 = 1.5, a 50% gain. If you sell for $8, collected $7 in dividends, and paid $10, your total return is 50%. ($8 + $7) / $10 = 1.5, a 50% gain. In all three scenarios, you invested $10 and received $15 in cash flow. Whether th...
