April 2013 Dividend Income Update

We are in the midst of a raging bull market. Dow broke through 15,000 and is now hitting new highs every other day. 

Quite a bit of my holdings seem frothy..but what do I know?  I have been saying that since January when the Dow was in the low 13,000's.

The funny thing about the market, the higher it goes, the more risky it gets..
