8We've reached yet another milestone 💚💚💚
With the big dividend payouts in September we have reached a new high of 1253.28$ for 09/2024. This marks the second time (after 06/2024 were I've reached a >1000$/month in dividend payment outs. 💰 I couldn't be happier, especially since this portfolio is only 10 months old.
For those you read my recent posts and are aware of my goals for this year and beyond, but here is a quick reminder.
My initial goal for 2024 was to have about 400$/month, when I saw how things progressed, I updated that to 500$/month, but looking ahead we are expected to end up with more than 800$/month, which would simply be insane. (TTM >650$/month)🤪
(For clarification I don't calculate that as TTM, but rather as the average of trailing 6 months, trailing 3 month, future 3 months, future 6 months. This is simply because I am still building my positions aggressively so that the trialing months significantly under-represent the status quo. I am aware of the uncertainty of future dividend payouts, which is why they are approximated conservatively. )
At the moment the total value of the portfolio stands at just above 170k$ with the plan for >180k$ end of 2024
>270k$ end of 2025
>370k$ end of 2026
I also decided to sell off one property and throw most of the money into the marker. If that happens the above number will be updated with my next post. I did lose my job recently, but hope something else comes up rather shortly, fingers crossed. 🤞This obviously also affects my investments.
My overall goal is to consistently have 4k$/month at my disposal for retirement (ideally without dipping into the principal of the investment). About 2k$/month will be provided by rental income and thinking that I will be more than one third to the 2k$/month needed from dividend payouts by the end of the year gets me very giddy.
This is the list of all dividends for this month:
$MAIN 21.81$
$MAIN 26.70$ (special dividend)
$JEPI 124.34$
$JEPQ 117.50$
$SPYI 102.43$
$QQQI 68.05$
$O 104.41$
$SPLG 67.10$
$SCHD 620.95$
________________
Total: 1253.28$
I also did some changes to the portfolio in minimizing the positions I hold.
I sold $MAIN (+0.99%) , $EPR (+0.6%) , $EPRT (+0.56%) and $VICI (+0.82%) not really because I don't thing they are good companies, but rather to stock up on securities I surely want to hold forever ($SCHD , $O (+0.87%) and $SPLG ) with some cash flow options like $QQQI and $SPYI sprinkled in for good measure.
I am sure there will be people saying that judging from that list, the portfolio is too conservative... and I would somewhat agree with you, but my objective is to build mainly a dividend portfolio that will consistently help with my expenses in retirement.
That being said, I am planning on expanding my $SPLG and $SCHD positions as well as adding to my cash for a potential market downturn so don't judge me too harshly.😜
Happy investing 📈, happy compounding💸!

I have also been busy selling stocks today, but not the defense stocks (This was originally the plan, hence the survey in the morning, but they are simply very well positioned fundamentally and still have a lot of potential). Instead, I disposed of the following candidates:
$EPR (+0.6%) +10,7%
$BXP (+0.53%) +25,46%
$STAG (+0.45%) -0,44%
I have now gone from the initial 77 positions down to 70. 🫡

Part of the capital was reinvested in$OXY (+0.57%) reinvested (subsequent purchase)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the original post with the 77 positions. However, I think you can already see the current portfolio. 😇
Another milestone reached, and this one is HUUUGE! 💚💚💚
With the very unexpected dividend increase from my favorite dividend ETF $SCHD to 0.8241$/ share for the second quarter 2024, I've reached a 1000$/month in dividend payments for the first time ever. 💰 I couldn't be happier, especially since this portfolio is only 7 months old.

Total: 1068.63$

That being said, I am planning on expanding my $SPLG position as well as adding $QQQM to the portfolio at some point in order to participate in some of the growth potential that technology and market leaders offer so don't judge me too harshly.😜
Happy investing 📈, happy compounding💸!

On the same pathway, just the horizon is longer, probably 2031, dividends and distributions will cover for all family living expenses.

Dear fellow investors,
This month I will reach another milestone in my investment journey, breaking 800$ in monthly dividend payments for the very first time. I couldn't be more excited....
Wooohooo 💲💲💲
This is due to receiving payouts for the following assets:
641 x $SCHD
281 x $O (+0.87%)
311 x $JEPI
211 x $JEPQ
179 x $SPLG
89 x $MAIN (+0.99%) (two payouts this month!)
137 x $EFC (+1.27%)
67 x $EPR (+0.6%)
67 x $SPYI
13 x $QQQI
Looking ahead, it seems like September might be my first 1k$ dividend month 🤪🤪🤪.
Fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞
For those among you who follow my story, know that I just started (again) in Dec 2023 and already had to upgrade my goals to 150k$ invested and average dividends of >500$/month. Both goals are within reach and very likely to be achieved before 2024 comes to an end.
I am very happy with sticking to the plan (DCA-ing into a selected few ETFs and stocks) in hopes for #fire (Financial Independence Retire Early).🔥🔥🔥
I am planning on making some adjustments to the portfolio over the next couple of weeks and months and hopefully later this summer I will share my whole portfolio with more information about my investment strategy as well as the (as of recent) popular Sankey diagram of monthly money flow here on getquin for scrutiny and further constructive feedback. So stay tunes for that.
The list of updated key take-aways are as follows:
1. Select your ETFs and stick with them
- Core:
$SPLG (alternatives are $SPY (+0.54%) and $VOO (+0.59%) ), chosen because of slightly lower expense ratio and lower prices (hope for more inflow), trading volume is not a concern as this was bought for the looooong "buy and hold"
- Dividend 💸:
$SCHD (alternatives are $VIG (+0.66%) and $VYM (+0.71%) ), chosen because seemed undervalued at the time of purchase, great dividend and decent dividend growth
- Growth 📈:
Still not chosen, open to suggestions
I maintain that it will probably be $QQQM (alternatives are $VGT (+0.44%) , $SCHG , $SPGP , $DGRW , $VUG (+0.71%) )
- REITs 🏠:
Not yet chosen, as here I am not even sure any longer if I actually want to invest in REIT ETFs or not just keep my exposure to the few REITS I already own ($O (+0.87%) , $VICI (+0.82%) , $MAIN (+0.99%) , $EPR (+0.6%) , $EPRT (+0.56%) ...)
If I decide to venture into this field, it will probably be $SCHH (alternatives are $XLRE and $VNQ (+0.96%) )
- Misc 🗠:
$O (+0.87%) The Monthly Dividend Stock
$JEPI / $JEPQ for monthly dividends in the covered call space
$SPYI / $QQQI to potentially replace $JEPI and $JEPQ
$VICI (+0.82%) / $MAIN (+0.99%) for additional monthly dividends in the REIT / finance space
I might also entertain the idea of investing in some individual stocks like $AMZN (+0.77%) . $NVDA (+0.48%) , $MSFT (+0.18%) , but that will depend on the constitution of the growth ETF I will buy.
2. Learn 🎓
Educate yourself and don't simply "trust" Youtubers. Read investment books (e.g. 'The Intelligent Investor' by Ben Graham, 'The Little Book Of Common Sense Investing' by John C. Bogle, 'Patient Capital' by Victoria Ivashina and Josh Lerner) and listen to many different voices in the investment arena. Be curious, but cautious... If it says: "100% win rate guaranteed!", it's probably best to stay away from it.
3. Don't try to time the market ⌚️
As one youtuber says: "Time in the market beats timing the market." I am sure we are all guilty of trying to buy at the best price on a particular day/week... If you are in for the long haul, it doesn't matter. DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) for the win. 🏆
4. ETF over stock picking
Of course you can have huge winners if you pick individual stocks and if you have some insights that allow you to buy before the hype, great, I am very happy for you. Who wouldn't want to have invested in $KO (+0.94%) , $TSLA (+0.9%) , $AMZN (+0.77%) , $GOOG (+0.19%) or $NVDA (+0.48%) in their early days?! But that doesn't happen very often. If you invest in solid ETFs covering a wide array of markets, you will do just fine (especially with a long investment horizon). I have certainly tried to "pick' some stocks that looked promising for their upward potential, but only two have given me solid returns ($NEP and $CFLT (+1.97%) ), whereas so far there are many losers (e.g. $IONQ , $OTLK , $SACH , $EPR (+0.6%) ).
That being said, I am not against holding individual stocks and I am sure that the likes of $NVDA (+0.48%) , $MSFT (+0.18%) , and $AMZN (+0.77%) will continue to deliver amazing returns, but these are also top of the list in weighted S&P500 or Nasdaq ETFs... ($SPLG , $VOO (+0.59%) or $QQQM , $SPGP etc.). Just saying!😉
5. Tailored investing
We are all different and our your time horizon, risk appetite, age, income and other factors most likely vary massively. My life, 47yo, being single without kids, being in a somewhat safe and well-paid job, having paid off properties that generate a decent income stream, wanting to retire in 3-5 years and not needing much is very different to someone who just starts their investment career and/or have a family or are already retired or or or.
Make a plan of what you want the investment to do for you and work towards it. In my case, I want to achieve #fire (Financial Independence Retire Early) as soon as possible, being able to live off dividends entirely. I recon I will need about 50k/ year (lots of safety built in). So building a strong dividend portfolio is my main goal. Sprinkle in some growth opportunities and we have a party. 🥳
Let me know what your goals are and how you plan to achieve those. Also if you have some input on which other ETFs and/or stocks to pick, I am all ears 👂👂.
In the best case scenario I never need the extra money (apart from a home) and I have just more money when I get old.
After calculating what payout I could get, if I kept investing till retirement age and what payout rate I could achieve, I it’s a nobrainer.
Even though I know that I need to up my spending on some point (family etc) and have a lower monthly amount to invest, it’s even more motivation for me to have a kickoff start.
Hi
Does anyone have an idea why the technicals on TradingView differ so much from the general analyst ratings that you usually find?
I currently have around 2500 available, which I either leave at 4% at TR or prefer to put into his Reit or BDC at 6% and then just leave there.
Regardless of whether $O (+0.87%)
$VICI (+0.82%)
$ARCC (+0.72%)
$EPR (+0.6%) the technicals are all Sell, while the analysts see upside potential in all of them.
Ultimately I wouldn't care, the money should be there, but I'm also well up on Main and Ares.
Happy Easter

Here are 5 stocks that pay a dividend every month. 💸
Anyone who wants can take a closer look at them:
1. realty income, div: 4.16%
2. Gladstone Commercial, Div: 6,85%
3. LTC Properties, Div: 6.74%
4. EPR Properties, Div: 6.28
5. Transalta Renawables, Div: 4.78%
I myself am only invested in Realty Income and I think I will stay away from other monthly payers for now.
What do you guys think about monthly payers?
