OVERALL DIVIDENDS TOTAL THIS MONTH: $134.44
February, May, August, and November are typically our light dividends months.  To make matters worse, since February, we sold five companies (ARTNA, COF, AAPL, OKS, and VOD) that would have paid us dividends in May.  No regrets because we made considerable profits from each sale and now sit on a nice pile of cash that we can hopefully use to grab a few value buys. We are currently considering the following popular buys:
  1. General Mills Inc (GIS);
  2. AT&T Inc (T);
  3. Verizon Communications Co (VZ);
  4. Omega Healthcare Investors Inc (OHI); and 
  5. Realty Income Corp (O).

  3. I used to have TD, RY, POT but sold them to raise fund for rental properties.
    We own some common companies like KMI, T, VZ, but I wasn't able to buy them before the ex-dividend date. Hopefully, I'll get to see my dividend going as much as yours by the year end.

    From the trend you took a big hit, but I see your portfiolio is recovering also. Dividend snowball can recovering quick.

    This morning I was calculating to see how long it would take me to get back to the average $500/mo level, and it would only take less than 24 months. We'll see if it's gonna happen.

    Cheers to more dividend to come!

  4. Good job. Once you get that money redeployed it will bring in some cash again. Keep it up

    1. Thanks. GIS is certainly a popular buy among DGI investors lately. We also have our eye on DGI. AFFJ

  6. Great results for the month of May. RY and TD and still rockin' and rollin'. I would love to add more to my Canadian banks but not at current levels. On the other hand, GIS is still looking attractive to me in June and is one of my stock considerations for the month. Keep up the good work!

  7. AFFJ -

    I would say very solid, no doubt. Also - no big hitter, and is fairly evenly spread. I do like GIS, and O just had a nice ride up, which is tough. I like T over VZ if T has a yield near the 5.1-5.2% mark.

    Nice job!!
