    How Much Free Money?

    Mo money Mo problems

    I’ve earned $10,760 in dividends this year.

    Year Total Dividends Received
    2014 $2,421
    2015 $4,169
    2016 $6,193
    2017 $10,760
    2018 $0.00
    2019 $0.00
    2020 $0.00
    Total  $23,543

    My total dividend haul this year crushed my goal of $8,000. I’m going to increase my next yyears goal from $10,000 to $12,000 to keep in line with my growth.

    Since 2014 I have received $23,543 worth of dividends. This does not include any capital appreciation.

    Another goal finished!

     A horrible graph but it shows that I beat the market again for the third straight year. This graph is straight from my bank and it doesn’t include dividends so I’m actually up significantly more. (RBC, get your act together)

    Every month I like to see what my total dividend income could purchase if I chose to spend it on consumer stuff.

    Turns out I could buy a …

    2017 Honda Accord
