Next year, I may have to slow down a bit... due to changing financial situation.

Is your idea to average out dividends received over a moving four quarter period? <br /><br />The red line graph in my chart is "Projected Monthly Dividend Income", or what other bloggers call "forward" dividends. I define "Projected Monthly Dividend Income" as average monthly dividend income I can expect to earn over the next year.

While both are growing, dividend growth investing is working nicely! <br /><br />I also like DE at this price and over time I believe it will provide great dividend income. <br /><br />Thanks for the good wishes, and I hope your journey is similarly successful!<br /><br />Cheers<br />FerdiSFerdiShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05008021146951839361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6097510160054715524.post-56698490783904457652014-09-01T11:49:58.491-07:002014-09-01T11:49:58.491-07:00Great job with $350 in dividend income.

Given how much growth you've seen in the last 12 months, it will be fantastic to see how much your portfolio turns over on itself next year given the $5k plus of dividends you will receive. That is an extra two months worth of extra capital given your $2,500 contribution rate. And thanks again for including my blog on your blogroll, much appreciated! Should be mostly caught of from my missed monthly posts by the end of the month! writing2realityhttp://www.writeyourownreality.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6097510160054715524.post-58545642885097297332014-08-31T16:15:20.841-07:002014-08-31T16:15:20.841-07:00Great dividend income as usual.
