monthly income you want, then tap a fund

Your goal ÷ what one share pays per month right now = shares needed. Then shares × today's price = the capital it takes. Tap EVERY FUND to see the whole roster at your goal.

How This Is Computed

Shares needed = your monthly goal ÷ what one share pays per month right now. The per-share figure comes from the fund's latest declared payment and the payment rhythm in its own record — a fund paying weekly is measured as a weekly payer, a quarterly payer as quarterly. Capital required = those shares × today's price. Everything recomputes from the live payment record when you press the button.

The honest caveats: distributions change — option-income funds can differ check to check — so this is what your goal requires at the current pace, not a guarantee. Figures are pre-tax. High payouts can come with declining share prices; before committing to a fund, look at its health check and its full payment history — the goal that matters is one the fund can actually keep paying.
