I threw a teaser in my last purchase article by mentioning that there was something else that I wanted to share with the community. Well, back when I was setting my goals for 2016, I pushed myself to achieve at least $3,250 in annual dividend income. You guessed it….my last purchase of Realty income pushed me over this mark and my forward dividend income total now sits at $3,265. Now, I’ll summarize how I was able to knock this goal out with just under two months to spare in 2016.
Happy Halloween everyone! The fourth quarter started out with a bang and we are closing in on the new year quickly. I still cannot believe we are closing in on 2017; hopefully it will be as exciting for all of us as it is setting up to be for Lanny. The end of the month is always the best because it allows us to reflect on the growth we experienced over the last 30 or so days. I love seeing what the two of us and the dividend investing community were able to earn without lifting a finger. Now, it is time to take a look at my October Dividend Income summary!
Last weekend, my wife and I met with a real estate agent to initiate the first step of buying our first house! In the past, I have written about how we are in no hurry to purchase a house, take on a mortgage, and begin incurring all the extra expenses that we hear about from friends and family. But, we anticipate the home buying process to be a lengthy process for us as we carefully vet our options to find that perfect house. This article will be a different style and format that I have had in the past, because I would love to leave it open-ended for a discussion and hear from as many people as possible about this topic. So please, at the end, share your experience/story!
September dividend income summaries out the door? Check. Quarterly goals articles completed? Check. Well, you know what this means…time for our favorite series where we aggregate do our best to summarize as many dividend income summary articles from around the dividend growth investor community.

Now, let’s get to the good stuff. Time to dive in and check out some impressive September dividend income figures from YOU the bloggers!
3 quarters down….1 quarter to go. Fresh off my recent 2016 goals review, I am inspired and looking forward to an exciting finish to 2016. The 3rd month of the quarter always brings an exciting dividend income summary because of the mutual fund payouts. And I can’t wait to show you the progress I have made in just 12 months. Let’s dive in and take a look at my September dividend income summary.
We are rounding third and heading home here. Considering the Cleveland Indians clinched the AL Central Division title this week, I figured a baseball reference to start the article off was pretty appropriate. Let’s see if they can capture some of the same postseason magic the Cavs had during their run in May/June. At the end of each quarter, Lanny and I review our annual goals to monitor our progress towards hitting these marks. If we are on pace…great. If we are off track, well there is still time to make some adjustments despite the fact there are only three months remaining. Time to dig and perform my third quarter goals review.
This week, I officially jumped back into the marketplace. It feels like it has been a while and finding great stocks at a value has been difficult (which is part of the reason why Lanny’s portfolio has sky-rocketed over the last few months). If you have been following the blog over the last few weeks or if you read the title to the article before clicking, the stock I purchased this week shouldn’t be a surprise. Time to see where I allocated my capital this week.
