After studying political science and history at the University of Pittsburgh, Jim Nelson went to Baltimore, Maryland in 2007 to write for Agora Financial. While there, he discovered how income investing could build wealth more consistently and with far greater ease than through high-growth and speculative means.
While at Agora Financial, as well as Insiders Strategy Group and Bonner & Partners, Jim headed several dividend and fixed-income services such as Lifetime Income Report and Bonner & Partners Platinum.
Today, he writes for a number of publishers about wide range of subjects -- from income and taxes to commodities and macroeconomics. He specializes in blue chip, dividend-focused, high-yield stocks; fixed-income investments such as preferred stocks and bonds and option income strategies.
