Posted on by

Welcome back to another month of Dividend Stock Purchases!  2021 is flying by, five months are closed already.  The S&P 500 is getting so, so close to 4,300 – I am sure if there is a fourth stimulus, this would put that over and then some.  COVID-19 vaccines are near 50% across the U.S. and Ohio is right near the average.  I am looking forward to a little normalcy.

My wife & I made the decision to increase our monthly contribution to Fundrise – the Real Estate Investing Platform! Continue reading →
