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.
