AGNC Investment (AGNC 2.49%) captivates income-seeking investors with its staggering 15% monthly dividend yield—more than 10 times the S&P 500's modest 1.2%. A $10,000 investment, compounded over 30 years, could theoretically balloon to $633,000, generating $92,000 in annual dividends. The allure is undeniable, but the reality is far less certain.

The mortgage REIT's strategy hinges on Leveraged investments in government-backed residential mortgage securities (MBS), amplifying returns through repurchase agreements. Current projections suggest a 19% return on equity, outpacing its cost of capital. Yet, such outsized yields often come with heightened risk, making AGNC a speculative play rather than a guaranteed path to riches.
