The month of October 2019 is another month of dividend income
landing in my accounts. Recently, I switched my pay yourself first model
to concentrate a little on debt repayment. The interest on debt is
7.16% plus the insurance on the debt. I currently pay myself 10% of
income from job(s) and non-registered accounts to my TFSA. The TFSA
income is staying within the account. I will deviate the 10% to savings
account instead of to TFSA if a large expense comes up like a dental
appointment.

I received a total of $623.98 in dividend income for the month
of October 2019. This is the first time I ever received over $600.00 of dividend income in a month. This represents a 22.0% increase from 3 months ago and 38.3% increase year over year. The increase is mostly due to increasing my position in C.I.B.C and re-initiating a position in TD Bank over the past year.
I received dividend / distribution income from 15 different companies.

Congrats on cracking $600.
ReplyDeleteJust curious, since it looks like your account(s) are 100% Canadian Equities, have you compared your performance to en ETF/Benchmark? How does it compare? Have you posted your total returns since you started investing?
Good luck. Keep it up!
Jordan,
DeleteI have one US stock, which is Facebook. I have been taking money out of my accounts, with most of it out the margin account.
Since Jan 1, 2016, my returns are as follows:
non-registered 36.82%
TFSA 52.76%
Trading: 327.92%
Savings: -218.60%
These give an overall return since Jan 1 2016 to November 2 2019 37.82%.
Over the same interval the S&P 500 and the TSX composite index return : 45.31% and 25.31% respectively
I keep track of this in spreadsheet. I started in 2009. I have taken dividend income out of my margin account over the years and sometimes out of the TFSA. I tried to get the returns from brokerage account but could only do from 2012 and then it would not perform the calculation.
Congratulations on crossing the $600 mark. You have been posting some amazing returns keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteMatthew,
DeleteI have to be very patient to get returns like that. I tried to be life Buffett and "be greedy when others are fearful and fearful when others are greedy"
