I'm Back To Write Again

Hi All

After long months without writing any word in the blog and what happened to me, I'm back to write again and with you for the long time.

I've got few emails from long readers asking where I am now? Did I left this blog and moved to other blog?

So the answer is: I'm Alive and still here doing my best to success with lots of setbacks from May till Today.

Wanted

Hello,

Nice to meet you, those who do not know me - Sharon Shoshani, 45, a divorced father of two.
I Like the investment world and the world of online sales.

The last two years I run a private investment portfolio, I buy and sell shares according to market analysis, I like the investment world, I am fascinated to read about the companies in which I invest or are considering investing. And enjoyed that money work for me. Once a month I publish in my blog the dividend income.

Back From India

I'm back after 1 month trip to India. I went to think about my life and what I want to accomplish in them. I went only for 2 villages and not traveled much, what you can see in the picture is the Himalaya mountains.When I saw this I thought about what I want to accomplish in my life so I can get to the highest points of my life.

India is a good place to think and get relax, also a cheap country like India is getting expensive, I think that in 5 years from now , the prices of food and hotels will be like in Europe , so if you have the chance now to travel to India or the far east - Just Do It.

When I got home, I've sold 5 stocks: CVX, FAST, DOV, DE, VZ because I left my job before the trip so I need to pay my alimony.

Also I wanted to start and make my eBay store my main income, so for the mean time I need some cash for paying my bills.

When I was at India I've decided to concentrate only at 25 stocks and not more so I have to sell 2 more stocks from my portfolio - MO and I didn't decided which other stock.

Side Hustles - February 2016

It is the time to post about my Side Hustles, I try to bring as much income as I can , so I can pay my child support(Alimony), I try to build few income streams in case I will lose again my day job income - Like it was before.

Dividend Portfolio Update - December 2015

Well, the time has come to update my dividend portfolio once again as heading to another start of a new month and a new year. My portfolio is my way to freedom from looking after funds to pay my alimony. One day, the dividend income this portfolio generates will fully cover my alimony. It’s important to keep in mind that I'm updating the overall value of my portfolio because if I have setbacks  I will use the funds in my dividend portfolio to pay my alimony.

2016 Goals

We are heading into 2016, and it is the time to write down the next year goals. after 2015 bad fiasco in financial terms, I hope that next year would be much better.

Last week my ex-wife told me that from January my girl will have to go to the orthodontic , to fix her teeth, I need to pay half of this and it will be approx. $1600 each of us. I didn't prepared for this, so I will need to find funds for that.

The Dividend income and recycling cans and bottles generate solid income so far.

First Of September - My Life Is On The Right Way :)

In recent months I searched again the path of my life .

A year ago I've decided to make a change in my employment and learn a new profession - an insurance broker and an investment advisor .

At age 44(in 2 weeks :-) ), divorce, father of two children who is paying alimony(child support), it was a big risk, my studies cost a lot of money, I moved back from the north to the center of the country, and my new job was enough for basic expenses and alimony(child support).

As someone who has been throgh a thing or two in his life, I jumped back into the cold water with a lot of faith I can do it.

I enrolled in four courses at the same time to finish and gradueat as quickly as possible. 

I started a new job in a new city called Herzliya and it 

seemed that everything goes smoothly.

There was only one thing I didn’t tought about…
