2023 January Dividends

 New year started and 1 more month in books. This Month i received $465  in dividends .Except for my     Fundrise dividends all others increased. Biggest increase came from MO and STWD and i think this   due  to re investing dividends    and adding few stocks in last few days.  This is 10% increase compared      to Jan 2022.

2022 July Dividends Report

July is in books and we are now running to  the end of the year.

This month i received $538 in dividends , These numbers are less compared to last year as there was a special dividend from TROW which moved my dividends past 600 last year.

If we remove the special dividend i had  Good growth over last year. Interestingly for this month dividend Payers other than DRIPs  in these stocks and random one or 2 stocks buy of CSCO, I am not investing in any of them directly .

2022 Dividend Goal: This year My goal was to receive $14k in Dividends, So far i received 49.7% of my goal ,36 bucks short of 7K for the year. Looks like unless there are some nice dividend payouts from any of my funds ,I might fall short of the goal. Current Projections show i am close to the Goal ,but depends on Dividend payouts from RERGX,VMCPX,VSCPX. There is a chance i may blow this goal also.

2022 January Dividends

January is  in books  and this month i received $423 in dividends for the month .Compared to previous years some of the biggest increases were from Fundrise, ITW and DG. I was doing recurring investments in DG and ITW last year.

2022 Dividend Goal: This year my Goal is 14K in dividends ,Last year I was able to get 12.5K in Dividends ,so this year i need another 1500 in dividends to reach my goal. I am hoping to achieve this with New investments and dividend increases.

With January dividends this stands at 3% of my goal.
