DECEMBER 2019 DIVIDENDS

A new year and a new decade.  It always brings a bit of reflection and refreshment. 
Thanks to the person in the photo below, my 2019 was the best year of my life.

I do all of this for her.

So far 2020 has had a bit of a rough start, with the Iran thing and all.   But I am an eternal optimist at heart.  Plus, I balance it out with a dystopian worldview.   The world is going to hell, but you gotta enjoy every second of life.  If you wake up every morning like it is Christmas Day, I guarantee it will add years to your life.  Well, Christmas Day MINUS the kid waking you up at 5am to see what Santa brings...

Back to the dividends..


At the end of the 3rd month of each quarter, I get a bit melancholy.  I'll have ot wait until March to earn a dividend payment almost every single day.

This December, I got 46 different dividends for a grand total of $1.601.10  I like having a permanent passive income stream.  A lot.

And I took every single penny of it and bought more shares to make this payment compound.

This is an increase of 17.93% from 2018's $1,357.72.

The big one was the special dividend by WHF.  A whopping $235.76.    Crossing my fingers for more "special payments" from them.

Seeing numbers like this motivates me to see this hit the $2,000.  I'll have to invest quite a bit to have it go up by 25%.   Let's see if I can do this

Cheers!
