March 2019 - Dividend Payout
It is that time again, for every investor it is the favorite time of the month. The time to stop and count the dividend received from the previous month and analyze what you received and plan for future dividend payouts for the months ahead.
I hope you had a great month last month as we had our best so far.
Dividend Pursuit had it's best month ever. I collected $226.26 in dividend last month to reach our highest total ever and $541.76 year-to-date in the first quarter.
Now let us review who paid me dividend last month, without further ado here is the list:
Do we share some of the names above? How did you do last month on your dividend payout?
Dividend Raise & Cuts
During last month I received 3 dividend raises and 1 dividend Cuts.
Raise
WPC raised its dividend by 0.20% which added $0.12 to my forward dividend;
O -Also raised its dividend by 0.20% which added $0.06 to my forward yearly dividend;
MAIN- raised its dividend by 2.6% which added $2.40 to my forward yearly dividend.
Cuts -
KHC cut its dividend by a whopping 36% that cut my dividend by $34.20.
Despite this I added more shares here as the long term play still looks better than other options at this point. In the past I have cut ties with the stocks, which I still may do as I had 3 stocks cut their dividend big time in the last few months.
All in all it was a positive month last month. I will also review my last three months of rental cash flow in a future post, as well start posting our ROTH and IRA purchases.
We are not planning to count with that income in the near future, but since we using it to lower our taxes we will start posting purchases on those accounts. I am still not comfortable posting results from our 401K and TSP due to the nature of those accounts as we will not be able to access it until 59 1/2.
How did you do last month did you had a wonderful month?

Congrats on a record month for dividend income. Like you, I also experienced the ugly KHC cut. Oh well... part of the DGI game. It happens to all of us but that doen't mean our income can't keep rising. Diversification is our savior. Lots of solid names paying you. Keep it up
