Dividends Received
Good way to end 2012 as I closed the year with my largest month ever as I broke the $1000 mark. With that said, 2 of my holdings (PAYX and CAT) bumped up their 2013 divided payments (PAYX 2 quarters of payments, CAT 1 quarter, FAF 1 quarter) which accounted for reaching this milestone. Total dividends received during the month were $1,078.92:- EXC $149.92
- RDS.B $138.43
- LMT $113.32
- JNJ $103.82
- PAYX $91.70
- INTC $77.82
- FAF$63.86
- BDX $65.31
- AFL $59.18
- MCD $56.29
- CVX $51.07
- TEVA $43.47
- EMR $29.63
- GS $15.43
- CAT $12.46
- RDS.A $5.43
- FTR $1.78

AA,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on exceeding the $1k mark in dividends for one month. That's an amazing accomplishment. That just shows what patience and perseverance will do.
You're definitely an inspiration. That's a hell of a list of companies paying you. I also had a great month, but just less than half of what you got this month. I hope to cross that elusive $1k mark in the next 5 years.
Keep it up!
Best wishes.
Congratulations on setting on new record. Keep it up! Have a great 2013!
ReplyDeleteMan, over $1k in dividends in a month is awesome. That'd be about 70% of the way to covering my minimum expenses. That's just remarkable and inspiring to see. Keep it up!
