INTRODUCTION
Assets are less ideal than income when you need money to spend in the short-term.
Investment strategies that focus on income make more sense as one nears retirement age.
The main component for determining the amount of that income is risk. The greater risk one is willing to take on, the greater the potential for a high-income stream.

VARIABLE INCOME INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

While the income will be less than that generated by a 100% income strategy, there will still be some income while providing asset growth as well.

PREDICTABLE INCOME STRATEGIES
Predictable income strategies are generally safe and reliable investments, but all of these investments are on a sliding scale with regards to risk.
For example, some bonds are very low-risk investments, but there are also very high-risk bonds.

INVESTING IN BONDS
The basics of investing in bonds are really quite simple.
Remember that you are lending money to a company or government that issues the bond.
The bond is simply an agreement to repay the face value on the bond plus a specified interest within a specific period of time.

INVESTING IN BOND FUNDS
These funds are similar to stock mutual funds. The only significant difference is the type of investments the fund manager utilizes.
Bond funds and dividend funds are frequently less volatile than stock funds and can also provide the investor with a steady stream of income.
As with all mutual funds, there are different levels of risk and return. Ensure the fund you choose is a good match for your risk tolerance.
