Dividends are one of the nicest perks of owning stocks. Of course, not all publicly traded companies pay them. Further, not all companies that pay dividends are worthy long-term investments in the first place. Therefore, when you find a dividend-paying company that’s also a solid long-term investment, it’s worth taking notice.
Here are three excellent dividend stocks that I would consider buying today: Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS), Nike (NYSE: NKE), and MasterCard (NYSE: MA).
