The month of December 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.

Most of my dividend income comes from my margin account in recent months. Due to the special distribution from Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund of $0.085 CAD per unit, the percentage of income from the TFSA is increased.
Next, I will show the percentage of total income for each position.
I surpassed my 2021 total dividend income during October 2022. The graph below shows my total dividend income, as per the blog, since 2012.
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.
Note: Any activity in my RRSP account is not included in these totals.
