The Snowball’s view. If you buy NESF and the dividends flatline, in eight years time, you will have received all your capital back and achieved the holy grail of investing in that you have an income producing Trust that sits in your account at zero, zilch, nothing. If you re-invest the dividends into another income producing Trust, you will also have more income to re-invest in another income producing Trust.

The risk is the dividend is not maintained, so remember the rules.
