So You Want Your SOFI Dividends to Multiply Like Bunnies? Here's How to Turn On the Reinvestment Machine!
Let's face it, who wouldn't want their money making more money, especially when it feels as effortless as watching grass grow (though hopefully with faster results)? That's the beauty of dividend reinvestment, and if you're a SoFi investor looking to supercharge your portfolio, you've come to the right place.
But First, a Little Reality Check (Don't Worry, It Won't Hurt)
SoFi, as of today (well, technically yesterday, it is Sunday after all), isn't exactly known for showering its shareholders with dividends. It's a growth company, which means it's busy plowing its profits back into, well, growing! But hey, that doesn't mean you can't be prepared. After all, who knows, maybe they'll surprise us all with a dividend bonanza someday (hey, a financial advisor can dream, right?).
Alright, Enough Chit-Chat, Let's Get Reinvesting!
So, you're ready to turn those future SoFi dividends into a beautiful little army of compound interest bunnies. Here's how to set up the magic in your SoFi Active Invest account:
