2020 December Dividends

 2020 is in books , one of the most unexpected years at least in my generation. Now coming to dividends i had a high hopes for December, but it turned out anticlimactic .I received less dividends this year compared to last December and it was significant.

One of the reason for significant reduction was very small distribution from RERGX one of my biggest funds .In 2019 I received more than 1300 in dividends and distribution from them.

Overall Dividends received were $1677,This is 38% decrease from 2019.But overall dividends compared to 2019 went by $10. This Year my goal was to get 11k in dividends and I achieved 82% of the goal. This year i will raise the goal to 12k Dividends. It will be very interesting to see where I will land.

Overall with all the things considered I  am ok with where things ended.
