Investing in companies delivering good results in terms of dividends only shall not be the only factor to look at before making any investments. Getting attracted by high dividend payments could be harmful to your capital appreciation as a high dividend also means low reserves for the company's future growth.
When a company does not invest in its growth, the growth rate of your capital will also go down. You have to set a financial objective before investing and keep a balance between capital appreciation and passive income in the form of a dividend.
