TF:CC - Got $500? 3 Top TSX Dividend Stocks to Buy Now
People with limited funds can be like high-net-worth individuals who don’t keep their cash idle. Instead of spending $500 on needless things, you can grow the money through dividend investing. There are inexpensive, profitable investment options on the TSX.
Three dividend stocks trade below $10, but their dividend yields are between 7% and 8.5%, above market average. Because of their high yields, they are ideal holdings in a tax-advantaged account like a TFSA.
