Recent Investment --FUNDRISE

This month i put in new capital to work in Fundrise. I added another $500 to my existing capital.This is the third time adding capital ,first time since 2016 .My dividends are also being reinvested .Thinking of doing $500 quarterly investment in fundrise or semi annually .

For Q4 i received 35.54 Dividends which are reinvested as follows.Compared to 2018 Q4 this is $3 less in dividends.

Since i started investment in fundrise in 2016 ,so far received $490 in dividends and $311 in appreciation.

Any one else investing in fundrise or crowd street or similar platforms.

2020 Buys -GD,GILD

New Year started and the market isnt slowing ,I was waiting to invest in my roth IRA account .

I added 5 shares of GD at 178.18 on Jan2nd .I am was waiting to add GD and this will add another $20 to my dividends and i will receive my first dividend payment in Feb .The ex dividend date is jan16th ,so there is a chance i may add another 5 or wait.

I averaged down GILD  by adding 2 more shares if GILD at 64.61,this brings my average to 69.23 and this will add another $5 to my account.

So with 1K invested i will add another $25 dividends to my account.
