Normally, I pick a dollar number and just go down the row with it, but I figured there was no sense in just having that Roth money sit there. I can go to my (self-imposed) limit and still have the money go in faster than it's going out (this split thing is actually working pretty well while we're on that topic,) I don't have to worry about automated recurring buys, and I get closer to those full shares faster. Not a bad setup.

It's a beautiful day to boost our forward income. Let's have some fun.
Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG): $3
General Mills (GIS): $3 (Roth)
Exxon Mobil (XOM): $3
Kellogg (K): $3 (Roth)
HP (HPQ): $3

Northrop Grumman (NOC): $3 (Roth)
Exxon and HP broke the full share threshold, which is always fun. SDIV is interesting as it was a full share, but then they did a reverse split, so the share count dropped back down. It's a cheap one, though, so it won't take that long to regain it, but it's still a little annoying.

Hard as it may be to believe, we are already 1/12 of the way through the year. January has come and gone, and as such, we take a moment to look back at the dividends that came in. This won't total won't come anywhere close to last month's humdinger, but we'll see how things went regardless.

That brings the taxable sub-total to $26.25. That's up $8.80 from last year. It is down a bit from last quarter, but it's only a few cents and that's because a couple of stocks and ETF's paid last month instead. I'm good with it.
Retirement accounts brought in $20.82. Almost an even split.
Grand total comes to $47.07. Still short of that $50, but it'll get there.
Interest clocked in at $2.36.
In addition to the Robinhood buys (which you can read about here, here, here, and here) I also began my plan to buy 1 share of Realty Income every week. I nabbed 5 shares this month, so that's off to a good start. My daily VTI/Crypto/gold and silver buys are also chugging along pretty nicely. Best Buy debited my account for its monthly transaction, but the purchase hasn't gone through quite yet. I'm guessing that'll constitute a February buy. I kind of figured that was going to happen, but I'm still hyped to see it start growing.
Still need to update the portfolio. I'll get around to it at some point this month.
Don't want to jinx it, but so far 2023 seems to be off to a decent start. There's still a lot of year left, though, so we'll see how things play out going forward.
