Hey everyone, the time has come for my first monthly update concerning my dividend income for the month of October. Before you pick apart my income, just realize that I started dividend investing 3 months ago and therefore still have a pretty small account size and my dividend income won’t be sexy by any means. What this month shows is that although I’m relatively new to this community, I already am growing my account at a rapid rate!
Here are the dividends I received in October 2020:
| KO | $1.23 |
| DUK | $0.97 |
| MO | $3.44 |
| BEN | $5.13 |
| MAIN | $2.47 |
| O | $1.87 |
| CSCO | $3.24 |
| IRT | $3.00 |
| Total | $21.35 |
This comes out to a grand total of $21.35! Yes, I know it’s not a lot compared to a lot of other blogs that are showcasing 4 or even 5 figures of dividends every month, but it’s a starting point that’s just going to keep growing. Next month, I have a lot of exciting companies that are going to be paying me dividends as well.
In November, I’m looking forward to receiving dividends from:
AT&T – $T
Verizon Communications – $VZ
Realty Income – $O
Abbvie Inc. – $ABBV
Main Street Capital – $MAIN
As always, I’ll be keeping you updated on the status of my portfolio and the investments I’ll be making in the future. If you’re just starting your dividend investing journey as well, just know that it’s very easy to start and that it’s YOUR journey. Go at your own pace and don’t compare yourself too harshly with other people’s portfolios.
On that note, I’ll wrap it up and thank you so much for reading the blog and I’ll catch you on the next one!
Marcus
