The month of July 2022 is another month of dividend income landing in my accounts.
Due to becoming debt free, I changed my pay myself model. Starting the beginning of August 2021, I am paying myself 30%, just like before. This will now consist of 24% to investing, and 6% to savings. The investment portion is going to my TFSA. Any money left over at the end of the month, I put towards investing on top of the money allocated from paying myself first. Hopefully, I can keep this up!
Update on paying myself first. At the start of August 2022, I now pay myself 35%. This will consist of 25% to investing and 10% to savings.

I received dividend / distribution income from 15 different companies.

In the first 7 months of 2021, I received $3515.51. In the first 7 months of 2022, I received $4098.71 in dividends. This is an increase of 16.59% over the same period of 2021.
I will update my dividend income tab with the new amount. I will include my option premium income also. It is great to see money from passive income sources deposited into my brokerage account every single month.

Congrats on a solid month IP! Being debt free and being able to pay yourself 35% per month is fantastic. That's really going to push up your brokerage accounts and dividends.
ReplyDeletePassive Income Pursuit,
DeleteThanks for dropping by. July was my best month ever for dividend income.
Looks like a good summer month of dividend income. I'm still not playing with options though I have seen some pretty good results from others collecting those premiums. Canada banks still look good.
ReplyDeleteDivHut,
DeleteWith my brokerage, it is difficult to trade options. $9.95 commission plus $1.00 per contract. Also an option assignment/exercise fee of $24.95. Interactive Brokers is probably best brokerage to use in Canada for selling options.
