  1. Those are some excellent results for an “off” month. Aamzing to see the communicty numbers. You can add my personal record at 26,49 euro to the list as well! 🙂

    Congrats to everyone!

    • Engineering Dividends,

      Of course! The community made reading these monthly results fun and we continue to be blown away by everyone’s progress. The rest of the year should be pretty darn fun if you ask me.

      Bert

  2. Extremely impressive results from the community, and thank you both for all of the effort to compile this summary! It is an honor to be included and I’ve got a nice collection of reading material ahead of me. Congrats to everyone on the “quiet” month and cannot wait to see what the next couple of months bring for everyone!

  3. All of us are really making an impact. That’s a lot of cash being brought in by normal people.
    It will be very interesting to see what next month brings
    Thanks for giving us this list. Congrats everyone.

  4. These are some great numbers for the community considering July is a bit of a slow month for many of us on the dividend front! Every month of dividends simply reaffirms the utility of the DGI strategy, and why we all advocate for it.

    • Kody,

      These numbers are great. In fact, I had to read many of them twice to make sure they were accurate for an “off” month haha I leave reading these summaries always inspired to continue down this road and “trust the process”

      Bert
