Dividend Income - June 2015

Another month has passed by and I'm glad to share my journey to financial freedom due to alimony.
In June I earned $114.51 (after tax) in dividends  -

AFL - $3.80
V - $1.80
CVX - $11.23
ADM - $5.67
IBM - $7.80
TGT - $7.80
XOM - $5.47
MMM - $6.92
WBA - $3.79
HSY - $4.42
UNP - $4.12
KBE - $3.66
IYR - $6.91
DVY - $7.28
IXJ - $7.56
FDD - $19.67
WMT - $6.61

In June more than half of my portfolio paid me dividends (17 companies and ETF's). This is my highest dividend income so far and first time 3 digits of dividend income. soon I will get the KRFT special dividend payment due to the merger with Heinz. All the dividends are still in cash because I'm waiting for the pile to get bigger.

  1. Congrats on reaching three digits of dividend income. Clearly, your consistent investments are starting to pay off. I see we share quite a few names for the month of June. I'll be posting my results in the coming days. Thanks for sharing.

  4. Sharon,

    Congrats on hitting three figures in one month. It'll surely only grow from here if you stick to it and continually add to the snowball.

    Keep it rolling!

    Cheers.

  7. Nice month Financial Freedom. Congrats on reaching the century mark! Also, great job putting together a portfolio where 17 different companies paying you a dividend last month. Even if 1 or 2 companies reduce or stop paying dividends, you'll still have at least 15 others to help you maintain that income stream.

    Keep up the great work...best wishes and continued success on your personal journey! AFFJ
