As a result, if you knock together a couple of article that catch my eye, you're on the list more than once!<br /><br />Thanks. I tried to make the categories as broad as possible. Thanks for suggesting it on last week's post. As I say, still working out how to adjust and improve it as I go along.<br /><br />If you or anyone has any thoughts, please feel free to chuck them here!Dividend Drivehttp://dividend-drive.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887408586168605394.post-91279370507328749682015-05-04T06:19:44.852+01:002015-05-04T06:19:44.852+01:00Hi DD,

Th...My pleasure. Thanks for the fascinating posts.<br /><br />That is genuinely very, very interesting and something that seriously needs to be considered. <br /><br />Of course, experience tells us this. When talking with my grandfather years ago he stated much the same thing when lending money to my uncle. His expenses have "plummeted" over the years (he has been retired about 30 years now). I gather that is even in hard currency terms not just inflation adjusted terms.<br /><br />It is something to be acutely aware of. If that means you are FIRE earlier than we currently think, that is a good thing. On the plus side, even if it is hard to calculate at least it suggests there is an additional financial buffer built into the system (of sorts!).<br /><br />I will add it to the list!Dividend Drivehttp://dividend-drive.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887408586168605394.post-12230519824548946822015-05-03T13:17:29.136+01:002015-05-03T13:17:29.136+01:00Wow! How did you get the superscript 2? That is to...Wow! How did you get the superscript 2? That is top work!<br /><br />I look forward to reading your post. Beverage stocks really are very attractive. My only concern is that it seems that many have been heavily "bid up" in price due to their super-defensive nature. I am therefore a little reticent to load up too heavily in case--when interest rates rise--they drop comparatively sharply.<br /><br />If they do. I will be waiting to add to my holdings then. I really want to add SABMiller as well as top up Diageo.<br /><br />I was delighted that I managed to jump on Diageo when they were pushed down. I am extremely happy that I have managed to get my entire Diageo holding at a fair value price. Hopefully the opportunity will come again! They are tempting at today's prices. <br /><br />Sometimes you're lucky with timing. Other times not. A bit like Britvic. Wait a couple of days and I could be sub-PE16 for next year and with a yield over 3.1%. But, as you say, hey ho!<br /><br />Not sure I feel bold enough to top up though! We will see.Dividend Drivehttp://dividend-drive.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887408586168605394.post-18584149375537826702015-05-03T13:12:04.799+01:002015-05-03T13:12:04.799+01:00My pleasure.

I'm looking forward to working my own post up to being ready on the LSE listed beverage stocks too. I regret not buying Diageo when their PE dropped to below 20 a few months ago, but hey ho.<br /><br />Cheers!M from There's Valuehttp://theresvalue.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887408586168605394.post-58132457953132187882015-05-03T07:40:22.203+01:002015-05-03T07:40:22.203+01:00DD,
