Awesome Stats for the first quarter AA. You're doing it up ! Keep up the good fight bud. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteThanks DH. You have been fighting the good fight yourself! In a few years from now we will both be drinking beers on the beach and working when we want to- if we want to!

AA,
ReplyDeleteBadass update as always! $20k in passive income is right around the corner for you.

MDP- thanks man! I should be close to that this year. My 2015 goal is $19K.
DeleteCongrats on breaking $16K forward dividends! Your gonna be at $18K and $1500 a month in no time. And it only compounds and goes up from there!
cheers, AA
Great work developing your passive income stream. You have made some solid purchases this quarter and we have several similar buys. I recently purchased PM, BP and RDS.B as well. Keep up the good work and good luck!
ReplyDeleteDE, Good job picking up PM, BP, and RDS.B at these levels. I am pretty confident these buys will turn out well for both of us when we look back in a few years!
Deletecheers, AA
Great Q1 with lots of fresh capital added. Quite a few of your purchases made are stocks that are in my portfolio. Always nice to find other fellow shareholders in names you invest in. Keep up this awesome pace. Look forward to your next update.
ReplyDeleteVery good results and nice income from dividends. Getting over $1k monthly dividend paycheck is really good income. I think if you stay this aggressive for a few more years you will be soon done with accumulating and start enjoying the results of your work.
ReplyDeleteAccumulating,
ReplyDeleteGreat job, - $4K in dividends is phenomenal during a quarter, and quite the contributions you've made, amazing. I had about $1,249 in dividend income through my first 3 months, so about 1/3 of where you are. great job and loving the progress!

If only some of the companies own had a Q1 as strong as yours. Truly inspiring post. Keep up the good work!.
ReplyDeleteWow, 15000$ in dividends annualized! Can't wait to get there. I'm about to cross 1500$ per year in forward dividend income :) The strategy is great but one needs a lot of patience and dedication to build such a passive income stream. You must be proud of yourself.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. It's inspiring!
Are you keep tracking your expenses as well to see, what is current replacement ratio towards your financial independence?
