Dividend Update March 2023

 

Well ladies and gentlemen I have surpassed the first $100,000 in my 20s. Wealth building or compounding wealth has been something I've always been curious about since I was like 16 years old. Why are these people soo rich? (side note: I grew up with YouTube, created in 2005) In high school I used to watch old 480p YouTube videos on wealthy families, millionaires, & billionaires. Like think of this................I understand the basic concept of snowballing your wealth to $1,000,000 by age 60 before my Dad sat me down in front of the computer to guide me through doing my taxes for the very first time. Before I received my first tax return check. Hell before my first job interview. I think I heard the term dividend for the first between the age of 17 and 18 when I was watching documentary videos on wealthy families. 401k's and Index Funds was all I understood back then but I was always pursuing more and more information. Example: How does wealth work? So it may sound unbelievable but its all a true story. I remember like it was yesterday in the classroom watching a compound interest video on the first kindle fire tablet before the teacher walked in to start class. I was still your average normal teenage boy that loved playing call of duty or having sleep overs and staying up super late playing video games with friends but..........the curiosity was always floating in the back of my head. Scroll down to see the dividend breakdown.

Dividend Update February 2023

 

The low yield high growth with double digit dividend increases, which can also be called Total Return investing is doing it's job with the year over year dividend income growth. Basically with the low dividend yield/high growth style of investing you have a very tiny dividend income that grows really fast year over year. With the dividend payout ratio being soo low and the companies aggressive growth in it's net free cash flow year over year it can *AFFORD* to give out 25% dividend increases over and over again. As the dollar amounts gets bigger the effects of a 15%, 20% or even as high as a 30% dividend increase will give you explosive dividend income growth year over year. The dollar amount within the increase gets bigger and bigger. It's like starting off with the weakest weapon in a video game on purpose because when fully upgraded to level 99 it's the most powerful weapon in the entire game. My unique style of dividend growth investing shines with the year over year *GROWTH*, not with the initial dividend income upfront from purchases.

Another short update down, one more to go to end off the first quarter of 2023. My low yield/ double digit dividend growth style will get me past $200 in dividends in a month *before* December of this year. Just sit back and watch. I'll see you in the next update. 

Dividend Update January 2023

 

Welcome to the first update of 2023. January is always the lowest month in dividends so it's nothing special just year over year growth over last year's January results. BTW I think I may hit 1,000 followers on my Facebook page this year in 2023. Never in a million years would I thought I would have any sort of following in the niche of investing because I started all of this because I was bored lol, maybe try something different on the internet. (then started having fun being creative on here) Here's a bonus for those who clicked on the blog, I actually used to run a gaming channel on Youtube (it failed), I also used to make *Anime Music Videos*  as well got a couple thousand views on most of my videos, 10,000+ views on my best one (saved them all on my computer for nostalgia). Now my next (possible) success on the internet (specifically Facebook) is in *stock market investing*????.......who would of thought of that?? Maybe it's because I'm not afraid to be myself on here or on Facebook. To see the January results scroll down below 👇👇👇

This is just a short/simple update nothing glamourous. The first month of the year is always slow. My monthly average should be around $140 to $150. It will start to pick in February and March so that's it for this update, until next time.

The final 2 months of the year always feel soo good, what you just read above is basically what happens when a 16-hour day becomes a "video game"🔥🔥🔥. I'm feeling a $3,000 invested month coming again in December, I'm calling it. I'm ready to wrap this year up and move on to 2023. Just doing repeated purchases over and over again nothing new. Just ignoring all the BS on the internet (especially Youtube) and just out here getting money. It's gotten to the point where I just straight up don't care anymore. I'm just love being on fire 🔥🔥🔥, a good "metaphor" of what it feels like to love a 16-hour day over and over again, is the "human torch" from the "Fantastic Four"............"flame on" 🔥🔥🔥. That's all I got for you guys so as usual scroll down below to see the dividends and purchase. Until next time 🎁❄️☃️🎁❄️☃️🎁❄️☃️

Dividend Update October 2022

 

Happy (late) Halloween!!! 🎃 🎃 🎃 If was I going trick or treating I would go as my boy "Static Shock" from DC (childhood cartoon). "Static Shock" was my sh$t when I was a kid. The white/yellow goggles, gloves, blue jacket, white shirt with the static shock symbol & everything else and only the true G's would recognize who I'm dressed as lol. Alright so this month was nothing more than being consistent, so when I have a month where I'm just making repeated purchases it just going to be a cute little update. Like I stated last month I won't be buying any new positions until at least 2024, as far as my Taxable Account I pretty much got every high-conviction single stock I wanted (within reason) from my "strict" watchlist. The biggest mistake I've seen is where people continue to spread out their positions waaaay too thin when they would have been better off scaling up their higher convictions. Now I want every position in the Taxable account (main account) to be $10,000+. The Roth IRA (secondary account) will receive some changes over the next 12 months (slowly building a cash position). Basically replacing old positions with better "long term" performing positions (that have stronger metrics). So this update is super short, scroll down ⬇⬇⬇ to see October's dividends and purchases. Until next time 🍗 🍗 🍗

Dividend Update September 2022

 

Welcome back to the most unorthodox investing blog you will ever come across on the Internet. My favorite songs during September was 🎶 "Nookie" and "My Way" by Limp Bizkit 🎶. A 16 hour day feels so f$$king good 😈 🔥🔥🔥  its soo hard to stop. I'm like a formula one driver that loves embracing those brutal lateral G force's when your aggressively braking & accelerating throughout the turns on track and then topping out at 200 mph on the long straights over and over and over again. (#Full Throttle 🏁 ) My average contributions month by month are averaging between $2,000 to $3,000 a month. When I was 16 years old in high school I already had a feeling that I was going to grow up and be abnormal with money in my 20s. I'm not surprised, at 16 years old I was watching old YouTube videos on how to franchise a "Dollar tree" store, and I was sooooo OBSESSED with videos of Billionaire's. I don't know what life is like where your not pursing "wealth"...... I'm totally ignorant to that. Back in highschool already knew I was going to be "different". So there's a little "behind the scenes" treat to the very few that actually clicks and read the blog updates. So as usual scroll down to the dividend income. 

Roth IRA

Total: $119.64

Taxable Account

Total: $25.80

Grand Total: $145.44

Dividend Raises: MSFT = 9.68%, INTU = 14.7%

Purchases: 4 shares of (MPWR) ($1,589.18) & 2 shares of (NVDA) ($247.08)

(MPWR) Monolithic Power System is my second semi-conductor stock addition to the Taxable Account. Unlike (NVDA) which is my only long term "growth" position, this one is high dividend growth/high growth style single stock. This is the last "new" high-conviction single stock that ill be buying for 2022 & 2023. For the regular brokerage account, I will not be buying into any new positions until 2024. I just want to scale up my positions and the consistently dollar-cost average for the next 14 to 16 months as we could possibly hit the bottom or the market continues to crash either way I'm still buying more shares. For the Roth IRA ill be selling and replacing some positions with better single stocks. For right now I'm doing nothing with my Roth IRA, other than consistently building a cash position. The brokerage account by default is my primary account so don't expect much activity with the Roth IRA. So scroll down below to take a look at some info/metrics on my new addition to the Taxable Account (10 positions total).
