Thanks Roadmap!
DeleteThat's a pretty good amount of money that you did not have to work additional hours to get. It's a pretty awesome concept. I'm quite a bit behind your income, but I set a personal record in June.
ReplyDeleteThat's great news Chris, you gotta start somewhere but seeing progress every quarter is really inspiring no matter what the income number is ultimately. It looks like you have some great dividend stocks already. Keep it up!
DeleteHow do you do you overlay the quarterly monthly avg?
ReplyDeleteThat's from Google Sheets and I just took a screenshot of it is all. It's a neat tool, best of all it's free.
DeleteVery nice! Your income is increasing!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work.
Cheers,
Pollie
It is nice to see progress, if not every month it is usually every quarter between continued contributions and dividend growth. It's a nice combo.
DeleteCongrats, the chart seems to be going up and to the right pretty steadily, which is always a good thing! :)
ReplyDeleteThings are shaping up nicely if I do say so myself. I like your site btw, your watchlist is a nice addition too. I added you to my blog list. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteI see that June was a pretty good month for ya CD. I really like your addition of Flowers Foods here. A lot of other great companies there that will continue to help your portfolio grow in the future. I really like the quarterly moving average on your graph. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI've been buying Flowers Foods pretty heavily after the big drop last year. I did read your article as well the very next day after I purchased (I got a nice little dose of confirmation bias there hehe). I have a full position now though so I may have to put it on the back burner.
DeleteIt's interesting to note that Hostess is set to go public again, it was a bit of a blessing for Flowers to get some of those Hostess brands back when they first went under. Those brands are going to serve FLO well going forward. Thanks for stopping by.
Looks like a new high watermark for ya Captain! I actually picked up 200 shares of FLO to write calls against after you brought it to my attention with your last post.
ReplyDeleteAwesome hopefully that goes well for ya. I never had the guts to delve too deep in to options myself. Sometimes I wish I understood it better, other times I'm glad I don't so I won't get involved with it. Thanks
DeleteHaha fair enough. I'm super interested because I've seen some studies that suggest you can squeek out a few extra % over normal returns with just monthly call options. Over long time frames, that's huge if true.
DeleteKeep it up Captain!
ReplyDeleteYou're doing awesome bud. Dont' stop and keep the ball rolling. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work. Cheers bro.
Will do DH! Thanks
DeleteGreat job Captain! It's always a great thing to set new personal bests. And that $350 per month average is looking solid too. All the best in the second half of the year.
ReplyDeleteI haven't set any goals but I wonder if I could hit the $400 by the end of the year. That would be something! Cheers!
DeleteGreat job Captain. I especially like how your new average is over $350. It's really starting to add up.
ReplyDeleteGreat job with that passive income earned. Closing in on another milestone figure is always exciting. Keep sticking with those quality purchases and watch those dividend raises continue to crank out and every increasing passive income stream. Nice to see a few names in common too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love the chart. It's great to see other investors keep moving on up. Keep up the great work
