Stick to your plan, thru thick and thin, there will be plenty of thin as the table above shows.

UNDERSTANDING INFLATION RISK

It’s very important to take into account inflation risk with an annuity. An annual income of £7,200 might sound attractive now, but it will gradually lose its buying power. After 20 years of 2% inflation that £7,200 would effectively be worth just £4,800. It’s possible to buy an annuity which rises each year in line with inflation, but they start at a much lower level. Currently this would be around £4,500 for a 65-year-old. This is a significant drop, but if you’re concerned about the security of your income, then protecting it from inflation will also likely be high on your list of priorities. There are other protections you can build into an annuity, such as a spouse’s pension, or a guaranteed payment period, but again these will reduce the starting value.

You may be able to get a boost to the annuity as a result of health or lifestyle conditions, such as diabetes, elevated cholesterol levels, or being a smoker. Of course, the higher income the insurance company is willing to pay in these circumstances is based on a higher statistical likelihood of an early death, so even here it’s worth considering the total value of all the payments that might be made.

Annuities are unlikely to recover their former glory, mainly because they look so inflexible compared to the other options now on offer. But retiring pension savers should at least consider the pros and cons. It’s also worth remembering you can take out an annuity with some of your pension while keeping the rest invested. This mix and match approach might help you hit the perfect blend of security, flexibility, and growth.

Including the current xd shares the income for 2025 is £9,154.00, which beats the target and therefore the fcast.

There are four more portfolio Trusts to declare a dividend for this year, although some of the payments may slip into next year. With the target for this year already achieved, that would be a good boost for next year’s figures.

A variable yield of around 5.5%, an ETF so no discount to NAV to consider. Could be pair traded with a higher yielder.

Here’s how I’d regularly invest £300 to target £2,000 of monthly passive income

Investing in shares, trusts and ETFs can be a great way to build long-term wealth. Here’s one way I could target a healthy passive income today.

When investing, your capital is at risk. The value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you put in. MotleyFool

UK shares have long been a popular asset class for those seeking passive income. Thanks to products like Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs) and Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs), individuals can boost their dividend income by not having to pay a penny in tax either.

These tax-efficient products have large annual allowances. The ISA limit is £20,000, while SIPP holders can typically invest the equivalent of their yearly earnings (up to a maximum of £60,000).

However, investors don’t have to invest anywhere near this much to eventually become financially independent. Here’s how just a few hundred pounds a month could eventually generate £2,000+ in passive income

Compound miracles

A modest regular investment can turn into a large pot over time thanks to the power of compounding. By reinvesting earnings, my investment grows not just from the original amount but also from the accumulated returns. This creates substantial growth over the long term.

With this in mind, what could I make if I regularly invested £300 a month? Here’s an idea based on different rates of return and investing timescales.

	5%	7.5%	10%
10 years	£46,584.68	£53,379.10	£61,453.49
20 years	£123,310.10	£166,119.22	£227,810.65
30 years	£249,677.59	£404,233.63	£678,146.38

History shows us that all of these rates of return are possible by investing in global shares. But none of that’s guaranteed and I could lose money as well as making it.

But let’s take into account the middle figure of 7.5%. This is around the long-term average of FTSE 100 shares since the index was created in 1984.

With an investment pot of £404,233.63 after 30 years, I could shift my focus towards dividend-paying stocks to target a regular income.

Assuming I could achieve a 6% dividend yield, I’d earn £24,254 a year, which translates to just over £2,000 a month (£2,021, to be exact).

Where to invest?

Investors have thousands of shares to choose from in the UK and overseas. This makes building a diversified portfolio that provides a stable and decent over time much easier.

But instead of picking individual shares, investors can also choose from a number of investment trusts and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to achieve the same goal.

These financial vehicles spread their pooled capital across a variety of assets — and in some cases across asset classes — to reduce risk and capitalise on different growth opportunities.

With this in mind, I might want to invest in a FTSE 100 tracker fund to target that 7.5% average annual return. The one I’d probably choose is the iShares Core FTSE 100 UCITS

There are many funds like this on the market today. But with a total expense ratio of just 0.07%, this is the most cost-effective one right now.

FTSE 100 trackers like this provide exposure to blue-chip companies with market-leading positions, diverse revenue sources and robust balance sheets. And with a wide selection of constituents including banking giant Lloyds, drugmaker AstraZeneca and miner Rio Tinto, I can enjoy exceptional diversification.

Past performance is no guarantee of future returns. And a lack of appetite for UK shares could impact how much I make from the fund in the coming decades.

But with investor appetite for British stocks recovering, I think this ETF could be an excellent way to target long-term wealth, alongside my portfolio of individually selected shares.

If u buy a tracker, as long as u can choose when to sell u will not lose any of your hard earned. The tracker may fall for several years with the market but could be a home for dividends if u can’t re-invest at a 7% yield. Not as safe as receiving dividends but an option if u are in your accumulation stage.

I bought these 3 REITs for BIG passive income

After REITs have been getting crushed, Zaven Boyrazian’s been busy snapping up bargains to supercharge his portfolio’s passive income.

Zaven Boyrazian, MSc

When investing, your capital is at risk. The value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you put in.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) have been pulverised since the Bank of England (BoE) started raising interest rates. With property valuations plummeting and debt burdens increasing, investors have been seemingly fleeing this segment of the market, sending these stocks into the gutter.

However, there are plenty of REITs caught in the panic-selling crossfire whose rental cash flows remained resilient, maintaining and even boosting dividends. So much so that I couldn’t help but capitalise on the situation and snap up some terrific bargains and tasty dividend yields.

Jump ahead to today, and these businesses continue to chug along nicely despite what their continued depressed valuations would suggest. And now that the BoE has started cutting interest rates, REITs could be primed to surge in the coming years.

So which stocks did I buy? And should I buy even more today?

Becoming a passive landlord

REITs are a marvellous vehicle for investing in real estate. While a direct investment can provide more control, using this indirect method provides a far more passive approach to generating extra income.

They also open the door to owning some more lucrative commercial real estate rather than being stuck in the more fickle residential sector. And it’s an advantage I fully capitalised on when I bought shares in Londonmetric Property (LSE:LMP), Safestore Holdings (LSE:SAFE), and Warehouse REIT (LSE:WHR).

Across these three stocks, there’s not much variation in the business model. Each owns a portfolio of real estate assets that are leased to businesses or individuals, and the rent is used to service debt and pay dividends. But the companies specialise in different areas of the market.

Londonmetric is predominantly focused on large-scale distribution centres used by retailers and e-commerce giants like Amazon and Tesco. Warehouse REIT caters more to last-mile delivery urban warehouses. And Safestore specialises in self-storage facilities across the UK and Europe.

Debt vs dividends

Buying and developing new properties isn’t cheap, especially in the commercial sector, where the costs venture into the millions. And since their REIT status requires that 90% of net profits must be paid out as dividends, these firms, along with almost every other REIT, are reliant on external financing.

In other words, they’ve each got their own chunky pile of debt to contend with. And that’s created some fairly understandable concern in recent years. Each has seen their interest expenses rise considerably, ramping up the pressure. And Warehouse REIT, in particular, has even had to sell off some properties to shore up its balance sheet.

Yet, despite the wobbles, dividends have remained intact across the board. In fact, both Londonmetric and Safestore have continued to hike shareholder payouts. And when paired with a falling share price, it’s translated into a far more impressive rising dividend yield. That’s why I’m still tempted to add more shares to my portfolio today while they continue to trade at a discount.

Whether you’re a newbie investor or a seasoned pro, deciding which stocks to add to your shopping list can be a daunting prospect during such unprecedented times. Yet despite the stock market’s recent gains, we think many shares still trade at a discount to their true value.
