August 2021 Dividend Income

Time to post my August 2021 dividend income! Hard to believe it but summer is almost over. For some reason, it felt like August went by super-fast whereas July went by more slowly. Maybe because there was more happening for me in July then August. In any event, the highlight of the month was that I crossed the $400K mark in net worth. Another great milestone achieved. In addition, I made a slight tweak to my portfolio with a recent sell and buy. But without further ado, for August 2021, I received $712.91 in dividend income from ten (10) companies.

 

  • T – $240.76
  • SRLP – $20.03
  • OHI – $167.50
  • PG – $28.70
  • O – $44.27
  • GIS – $52.02
  • ABBV – $42.90
  • VZ – $77.81
  • GD – $16.66
  • NNN – $22.26

August 2021 Dividend Income Total: $712.91

Locked in another $700 plus month! This month’s dividend income shows a 15% year over year increase from August 2020. Not bad considering this is my “off” month. An “off” month is when I get paid the least amount of dividend income from the least number of companies. Also, this was the first time I received a dividend payment from NNN. In addition, with my recent sale earlier this month, this was the last payment I will receive from SRLP. But now onto dividend increases!

      • ITW increased dividend to $1.22 per share resulting in a $4.80 increase.
      • GSK maintained dividend, however, currency fluctuations resulted in a $4.85 increase.

All in all, dividend increases for August 2021 totaled $9.65!

Thus, this concludes my August 2021 Dividend Income. I will be fully reloaded to make some new stock purchases by late this September. Things are moving along smoothly. My portfolio is now set to generate $11,770 in dividend income over the next 12 months. It  is becoming increasingly likely that I will hit the $12K dividend milestone this year. That would be awesome! I continue to work on achieving my goals and continue to grow my dividend income each year. It is onwards to the $12K milestone as I continue to build my dividend dynasty!

So, how do you do this month? Break any records? Can you believe Autumn is here at the end of the month? Let me know in the comments below!
