August 2017 Dividend Update


It's time for my August dividend update! For the month of August I was able to earn $372.58 in dividend income.

In made one purchase for the month in Altria, I wish I would have waited a bit since it's even cheaper now. That's how the market works and that's why I'm not a trader. My timing is usually pretty crummy in the short term. Other than my one purchase I had a pretty quiet month but still managed to earn some steady income as you can see below.
