Mr. Market you can keep taking that downturn all you want. As long as us Dividend Diplomats have capital and we feel there is an opportunity, we are going to try and strike, in the words of Austin Carr – throw the hammer down. The market was on a nice decline today, came slightly back, but then took another slide in the park for us. Let’s dive in about who, why and how much I bought of a certain stock!

Lanny’s August Dividend Income
August is already in the midst of wrapping up and I have tallied my dividend income total for the month. Again, not a typically high month for me as a dividend income investor, but everything has been truly phenomenal and I am grateful for any dollar that I receive for efforts that I had placed in the past.

Crushing $6,000 in Projected Dividend Income
I am very glad I have set a realistic, attainable goal this year and am churning my way to it.

Lanny’s Recent Purchase – NSC
I’m back at it again! The market again, has taken a downturn south and one of my newly created positions from last month went on sale this week/today more specifically. Sometimes… if you have the idle cash it’s best to use that and average down a position that you want to build, buy more income for less and smile as you do it. I was lucky enough to do just that, I made a purchase today to a position I already have. Let’s take a look on who that was.
Lanny’s Recent Purchase – EMR
Well.. the market keeps saying- buy me, buy me, and there are opportune stocks everywhere at the moment, in my book. I took advantage of a recent price slide on a stock that many have been purchasing over the last month, including the one and only – Bert.

I had capital that finally was able to transfer over, now let’s see who, how much and why I bought this stock.
Mr. Market taking a Turn

Thought I do enjoy seeing what is happening from this level, I enjoy it even more when my favorite dividend stocks become discounted throughout the process, yes, yes, even European and Oil companies included. With that said there have been more stocks that have Continue reading
