separate portfolios of different DGI types

[DividendGarden]

I own Realty Income (O) and MCD ("real estate investment", correct?). Besides that, I don't want to own real estate. Sure, it may be a great investment for some, but not my personality type. I don't want to be involved and have to fix an a/c or find tenants. No, thank you.

As for separate portfolios, I use my Roth IRA and traditional IRA differently based on tax treatment, along with regular brokerage & DRIP accounts.
