The start of summer in June combined sport and leisure for me. By that I mean swimming, hiking, running and sport at home. Apart from the incoming dividends, I hardly noticed anything on the stock market. It was not the strongest distribution month due to the postponement of three distributions, but it was still a very strong one. Time for a review.
Overall performance
The portfolio tended to tread water in June, but that is no cause for concern. Bit by bit, it is fighting its way out of the lows of the customs conflict. And cash flow continues to be generated by distributions to the clearing accounts. The key performance indicators are:
- TTWROR (month of May): +0.19 %
- TTWROR (since inception): +65,45 %
- IZF (month of May): +2.47 %
- IZF (since inception): +10,21 %
- Delta: +€148.63
- Absolute change: +1,173.63 €

ETFs vs. shares
The breakdown of ETFs vs. shares across all portfolios is 38.7% to 61.3%. This differs from the breakdown of my ETFs to equities savings plans (43% to 57%). Equities have performed better, which is due to the fact that I also include high-dividend ETFs in the ETFs.
Investments and additional purchases
Here is a brief overview of what I have invested in savings plans according to my fixed planning.
- Planned savings plan amount from the fixed net salary: €1,030
- Planned savings plan amount from the fixed net salary, with reinvested dividends: €1,140
- Savings ratio of the savings plans to the fixed net salary: 49.75
In addition, there were the following additional investments from returns, refunds, cashback, etc. as one-off savings plans/repurchases:
- Subsequent purchases/one-off savings plans as cashback annuity from refunds: € 32.32
- Automatically reinvested dividend by broker: € 7.25 (Function is only activated for an old custody account, as I want to control the reinvestment myself)
Additional purchases were made from other surpluses:
There were no additional purchases from the components of my cashback pension (e.g. reimbursements from health insurance premiums, insurance premiums, shopping vouchers, etc.) this month.
If you would like to know how my cashback pension supplements my equity and ETF pension, please let me know.
Passive income from dividends
My income from dividends amounted to € 152.30 (€ 179.04 in the same month last year). This corresponds to an increase of -14.94 % compared to the same month last year. The following is further key data on the distributions:
- Number of dividend payments: 31
- Number of payment days: 15 days
- Average dividend per payment: € 4.91
- average dividend per payday: € 10.15
The top payers are:
My passive income from dividends (and some interest) mathematically covered 15.91% of my expenses in the month under review.
Crypto performance
My crypto investments also moved a little:
- Monthly performance portfolio: +3.81 %
- Performance since inception: +79.49 %
- Proportion of holdings for which the tax holding period has expired: 100%. This means that there have been no additional purchases for over a year.
- Crypto share of the total portfolio: 2.19 %
I find the topic exciting, but it is very underrepresented in my overall portfolio due to my passive income strategy. The first profits have already been realized and more will definitely follow. For me, crypto is a lever to turn play money into even more play money, which is then put into the solid distributors to make the income snowball grow bigger and bigger. New accumulation will take place in the coming bear market.

Outlook and conclusion
I'm using the summer, which has already begun, not only for hiking, but also for city trips for my "non-financial" TikTok and Insta channel. I can often be found at one of the lakes near Leipzig, which were once created from the open-cast mining pits of the brown coal era. It's nice that the lunar landscapes have become a local recreation area. That's why I'm less active at the moment. That will certainly change again in the fall.
For now, I'm just enjoying life, and my money continues to work stubbornly and steadily for me in the background. Current events in the world and in politics don't interest me in the slightest. As I write this review, the first third of the summer will soon be over.
