October Dividend Income



My total dividend income for October totaled  $146.32. This was a small improvement over last quarter where I made $135.27 in July. This month I made one purchase and had two dividend increases which are listed below. You can see all of my dividend income here. This was a pretty light month for me but next month is shaping up to be my highest monthly dividend total yet.

  1. Great month Captain! Always nice to see how the dividend raises increase your quarter over quarter income, even without significant additions. The power of DGI at it's best!

    1. For sure, the dividend raises really help compound those dividends over time. It's extra money for doing nothing more than owning a stock.

  3. Captain,

    Great month. Love the chart - looks like stairs; stairs climbing higher and higher to larger monthly dividend totals. :)

    Best wishes.

    1. Hey DM,

      For sure, that's what I hope to continue seeing. I hope I can find a nice bargain out there for my next purchase so that growth can continue.

  4. Maybe a moving average of 12 months would be more effective passing the message of increasing dividends.

    Nice work and best wishes!

    1. Your probably right there Trader. I'll have to see if I can get my Google docs to do a trend line. Thanks for the feedback.

    1. Sure is nice indeed SWAN, it shows that even with limited investment money one can still grow their passive income over time.

  7. Captain, it is a very good income. My November income also jumped well above my goal and I received $165 in dividends. I am not expecting any dividends for November as all my stocks already paid, so I can call it closed. My best month so far.
    So congrats on your income. as you will progress, it will roll faster.

    1. Hey Martin, that's great news. I think were in the same boat as all of my November payers have already issued their dividend for the quarter. Gotta love watching your income exceed your goals.

    2. oh yea, I love it. I created a calendar (have it on my blog) so I can see when each stock will pay me a dividend. Many times I go and check my calendar when the day comes. Like a little kid checking days until Christmas Eve!

      Since I stopped investing in Lending Club, all my proceedings will go to ROTH and taxable account, and I am totally excited about it as that means my income will be boosting up.

      Nice seeing your progress. You jumped up very quickly.
