Dividend Update April 2018






Whats up fellas, back with another dividend update hitting a new monthly dividend record. Been seeing the market on a down trend so far this year, which isnt really a bad thing, because all your stocks are at a cheaper price. I noticed 4% yields popping up from stocks i never would of thought would have a yield that high like KMB, GIS, and PG for example. I love down markets, get to capture those higher yields left and right =)



Alright lets go over the dividend income


Total: $44.89 (getting close to the $50 range)
YoY: 431% (these numbers surprise me every time)
Purchase: 2 shares of IBM

Dividend income looking beautiful as always, i plan on buying KMB next. Going to keep spreading my money across all my current holdings. I don't feel the need to diversify right now im just going to stay on auto-pilot and just keep scaling up on my current holdings.


Why i invest like a retiree

 People say that i invest like a retiree and that i should buy growth stocks since im young in my early 20s. Look i understand where there coming from but dividend investing and compound interest is how i roll baby. Like look at the year over year percentage increase like that what im all about fellas, its my style i roll with the retirees they cool. I dont ever plan to touch the principle in retirement, the only thing ill be touching are the dividend payments. So even if i have a $10 million portfolio at 60 years old, ill just be spending the interest leaving the principle alone re-investing any left over dividends i dont need. Im basically building a big trust fund for the 60 year old Michael Johnson, i just want him to have a bank account filled with tons of cash with no worry of living expenses. The principle will just be a pretty number to look at every morning. To make retirement goals more clear i want to be living like Bruce Wayne (batman) when i retiree =). 65 year old self be pulling up at a car show, in a blacked out custom built hot rod with a batman design shooting big flames out the exhaust, has a sweet hat with some sweet shades on and a big smile.



When i hit a new record i always have a song to celebrate to, my retirement goals are based off the wealthy DC character Batman (im going to with that for life), thats how i want to be living like when i retire =) you know what maybe Jaden Smith can explain it better.


Press play =)






If you got this far, i got some news for you. Im planning on changing my dividend blog and Facebook page name to something that would make better since (drum roll please)..................."The Dividend Mascot" (or just dividend mascot) that title alone describes exactly how i am with dividends i couldn't think of a better suited title. Name change will be official during the next update, hope you guys enjoyed keep stacking them sweet dividends and ill see you guys next time =)
