From Amy Calistri ...

I run StreetAuthority's Daily Paycheck advisory... but I've never worked a day on Wall Street.

I'm an investor, just like you. When I got my first job out of college, my first paycheck went to getting settled in a new apartment. My second paycheck went into a portfolio of investments after I taught myself the ins and outs of the market.Within two years I was making a down payment on my first house -- all with proceeds from my investments.

I've been investing ever since. Earlier this year I started sharing my investment ideas through StreetAuthority's Stock of the Month newsletter.  And so far the results have been astounding!  My picks are up as much as +46.4% in just a few months.

That's because any time I put my cash on the line I want to know the odds are on my side.  And when you can find cash-rich companies that shower their shareholders with ever-increasing dividends, the odds are planted pretty firmly in your favor. 

That's what The Daily Paycheck is all about: Finding stocks that pay us fat, steady, frequent dividends -- and that are accelerating those dividends every year.

To start you off on a high-income run, I have found three stocks whose dividends are on target to grow by +111% per year for the next three years.

These are my top three picks to launch your income like a slingshot, giving you a big head start on whatever your wealth goal may be. You'll find all three of them in the premium report Three Rock-Solid Stocks for a Lifetime of Income, which you'll receive when you subscribe to The Daily Paycheck.
