January 2017 Dividend Update


It's time for my January dividend update! My income for the month was $336.41, this is a bit lower than I was expecting due to the Kraft/Heinz (KHC) dividend payment falling in December. That's still over $300 of free income I didn't have to work for.

This month I made one purchase. I bought 14 shares of Proctor & Gamble (PG) - $1199.96 which should add another $9.38 in dividend income to next months totals!

January Dividend Increases
  • Sysco (SYY) - From .31 to .33 (+6.4%)
January Dividend Income
  • Walmart (WMT) - $43.50
  • New Jersey Resources (NJR) - $90.78
  • Pepsi (PEP) - $32.36
  • Philip Morris (PM) - $14.56
  • Altria (MO) - $57.95
  • GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) - $35.58
  • Realty Income (O) - $3.65
  • Sysco (SYY) - $21.78
  • Cisco (CSCO) - $9.62
  • Annaly Capital (NLY) - $16.80
  • Universal Health Trust (UHT) - $32.75
  • Powershares Muni Bond ETF (PZA) - $9.83
Total Dividends January 2017: - $336.41

In the chart below you can see my dividend growth, you will notice in the past 6 months my income has been reduced slightly, that was due to my sale of Realty Income. I used the proceeds to pay off my mortgage and I have now started to reinvest in Realty Income again (this time in a Roth IRA tax advantaged account ).

  1. Captain -

    Nice job! Killing it over there and smooth move buying O again, in the tax advantaged account, which makes sense given the REIT, higher yield, etc.. Looking forward to the moves you make in 2017 and I also bought PG in January as well - excited for more dividends from them.

  5. Very nice income for the month there. Payed off your mortgage? That would have to be a fantastic feeling for sure!

  6. That's great that you pulled in over $330 in January even after your Realty Income sale.

  7. Hi Captain,
    Congrats on a great month - $330+ of income you didn't have to work for is awesome! I like the PG pickup too. Holding O in a Roth account is much better for tax efficiency.
    Best wishes,

  8. Wahoo $330 is still pretty awesome! Also wahoo to paying off your mortage, that's a great step. You really can't go wrong with Realty Income. It's one of my personal favs. =)
