June 2017 Dividends

Ah the feeling of sweet hard cold cash rolling into my accounts.  It was my best month so far this year.  $450.41 total which included $423.25 into my IRA and another $27.16 into my regular (taxable) account.  I don't include my regular account in my income as that is always reinvested into more companies which keeps the snowball growing.

Overall there were 8 increases.  Some were double digit growth and some < 1%.  Below is the list and any notes I made.

Compared to last year it has been a welcome jump back up and above 2015.  Last year the portfolio was getting restructured so there were a few months of little to no dividends from my IRA.

Hopefully there will be another jump soon when I rollover my previous job into my IRA.  It is always good to get away from high expense and poorly performing funds to companies of your own choosing.  With the benefit of no expenses and the dividend growth machine I can't wait to see how they perform compared to the funds they came from.

I am off on vacation next week to Mackinac Island to enjoy the Great Lakes and some of the clearest waters around.

Happy dividend collecting,
