August 2023 Dividend Income

The taxable sub-total comes to $75.26.  Retirement account total comes in at $49.04.  All in all, this month brought in $124.30 in dividends.  Very small growth compared to last quarter, but it has been an annoyingly stagnant one, so that is to be expected.

Interest clocked in at $4.25.


Very light month as far as moves go.  There was the $50 into Best Buy.  Beyond that, all I did was re-initiate automatic dollar a day buys into Colgate (CL), Kellogg (K), and General Mills (GIS).  I can't go at it like I was at the year's opening, but it does feel good to at least start getting that ball rolling again.

I also upgraded my Robinhood account to their "Gold" program.  It gets a bigger match on IRA contributions and offers a 4.9% interest rate on the cash in your account. Still not quite at that ING 5% standard set back in the day, but very close. It does cost $5 a month so it'll be operating at a loss in the short term, but long term, this will definitely yield positive results.  The only downside is that with most stock dividend yields below that; it's going to feel like I'm losing ground every time I make a stock buy.  Can't think that way, though.    

Still 4 months left in the year.  Still a good chunk of time to build some upward momentum to end the year on a high note and set the stage for 2024.
