This is a late post but work has been kicking my butt and I haven't really had much time to do anything other than work, family, a little bit of exercise, and sleep. I know there is no set time that a post needs to go out but regardless of how busy I get, I usually always try to do a monthly temperature reading on our family's finances. Our monthly dividends are one part of that temperature reading. So here it is, our December recap:
Our family had to hit the pause button on building our dividend income portfolio while we were trying to cash flow our home improvements last year and the earlier part of this year. I'm happy to say that our home improvement project is now complete and we resumed active trading back in May. Since we continued to make more purchases this past month, we saw our forward dividends increase roughly $128 This past month! I must admit that it is great to see our monthly and forward dividends continue to grow once again.
Although we no longer post full details of our buys and sells activities, we had 0 sells and 9 buys this past month.
