Dividends should be seen as a reduction in a stock's intrinsic value over time and as capital appreciation that otherwise would have been achieved had the dividend not been paid.

Realty Income, Verizon, and Walgreens are three popular dividend stocks that investors should avoid due to financial concerns.
