We are Proud to Welcome Some of the Best DGI and FIRE Guests!
We believe in empowering investors. While dividend growth investing is our chosen path, we are pleased to get inspiration from others who made it. Our guests all have something in common: they decided to build their own lifestyle and found ways to achieve it. Mike leads the discussion for these sporadic interviews but is still supported by co-host Vero, his core business manager and long-time partner at Dividend Stocks Rock.

About Mike

Mike worked in the financial industry for several years, including 5 years as a certified financial planner and 5 years as a private banker.

About Vero
Vero completed her Communications college degree in 2007. During the first years of her career, she mainly worked in the marketing field for a newspaper and a large high-end furniture store, where she learned to adapt to the fast-changing advertising world. In 2010, she made the bold move of working in the “blogosphere” alongside Mike. This life-changing decision opened the doors of dividend growth investing for Vero. She quickly turned into Mike’s second brain and has held the Core Business & Marketing Manager position since the foundation of Dividend Stocks Rock in 2013. Throughout the years, she has discovered a high interest in investing and believes in investors’ empowerment.
