April 2026 Dividend Income

Time for my April 2026 dividend income!

April was a really nice month. Despite a few cold days, the weather is warming and I can finally retire my winter close (it seems).

I was able to spend more time outdoors doing what I like.

The one downside of Spring is my allergies kick in and flowers bloom and pollen spreads. My allergies tend to go away by Summer.

Until then, it is a Claritin each day which does work very well for me.

And of course, the tax man came on the 15th. I owed the State and Federal government approximately $1,500 combined.

It is what it is, so that’s all paid.

In the meanwhile, the dividends are rolling in strong!
