ED PERKS: A GREAT INCOME INVESTOR
A reliable and decent source of income is hard to find but this week’s guest runs the venerable Franklin Income Fund, which has paid a monthly dividend since 1948. Perks, whose fund can invest in stocks, bonds, and other income producing investments, will tell us where he is finding the best income now.
