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 June Dividends



 Q2 is in books and june month is done .I have received $2152  in dividends. This is $100 less than Q2 2021.


One of the reason dividends  are less  compared to 2021 is the payout from RERGX fund,last year it contributed  close to $850 and this year its $63.Now I rebalanced  the position,still the  dividends are less.Excluding RERGX,I had good increases and with special dividend from LYB.



2022 Dividend Goal:

My goal for this year was 14000 in dividends  and I am at 46% of the goal.This seems to be interesting  as half of the year completed and I am 46%. Need a bumper second half of the year to make it.
