Both income and value investors are very excited when it comes to the companies that consistently pay out dividends for shareholders. However, investors must know the companies can keep paying out to shareholders over time, that dividends are sustainable. One rough way of judging that is the dividend paying history, combined with the cash generation ability. So I searched for companies that kept paying increasing dividends over the last five years, with free cash flow for the trailing twelve months and free cash flow last year positive, and with yields of more than 6.5%. Here are the top four candidates in the arrangement of yields from high to low:

My opinion, I would stay away from all four. The payout ratios for VGR OHI and BWP are crazy high - which means the dividend isn't really safe regardless of number of years paying; PBI, the stock share has dropped each year of late.
