611Nice first month of receiving dividends, while market is crashing
This month I got my first dividend payments since I've started investing in February from $O (+1,99 %)
$VICI (+2,31 %) and $VWRL (+0,65 %) and the REITS went up nicely to cover the crash and my EUR>USD loss on paper. Let's see if the orange man can give more discounts soon.

Presentation (children) Depot
As I always enjoy reading your ideas here, I wanted to take part.
I'll start with the depot of our 9-year-old child:
- we started by collecting all the money in a traditional account
- In the course of 2020, I started with individual shares 🤩
- But we wanted to keep it simple for the child, so I first invested it in a TechETF, which also performed very well (but unfortunately without DIV (unfortunately for me))
- so I switched it to a world ETF (TER ok, weighting for my idea perfectly ok, but was also before the 🍊 man)
- This has been saved in monthly since then
- $RBLX wanted the child myself and haven't been wrong so far (even with my own investment)
- $MAIN (+1,8 %) and $O (+1,99 %) simply chosen to get the 20 euros per month (gross on average), keyword pocket money
What do you think? Better ideas?
Keep it simple ;-)
Dividends explained for dummies
I am looking more into dividends for the first time. Can someone please help me understand the following?
17.45 USD today is ~15.40 €. Final amount (what is paid out) is 9.12 €. That's a sick ~40% tax?!
I understand
- the tax withheld 1,62 €
- the statutory (German) withholding tax 5.23 USD (25%)
what I do not understand is the assessment base of € 6.14
Is that the same for you private individuals $O (+1,99 %) the same?

65 shares of Realty Income
Gross dividend: USD 0.2685 per share
Total: USD 17.45 (before tax)
Withholding tax (USA)
30 % on USD 17.45 = USD 5.23
This is retained directly by the US state
German withholding tax + solidarity surcharge + church tax if applicable
Is calculated on the so-called assessment basis (€ 6.14)
- 1.62 was withheld for this (capital gains tax + solidarity surcharge)
The assessment basis is not simply the euro value of the full dividend, but is reduced if foreign withholding tax can be credited.
Gross dividend: approx. 15.40 € (according to exchange rate)
Creditable withholding tax (USD 2.62) is deducted from the gross amount to avoid double taxation
This results in a taxable amount of € 6.14
Gross: USD 17.45 (€ 15.40)
Withholding tax USA: -5.23 USD
German tax on € 6.14: -1,62 €
Net payout: € 9.12
O = OHO

Riding a Market Crash - My Second Portfolio Update!
I recently started my investing journey in February—just before the market started dipping—and I wanted to share my second portfolio update and some of the lessons I’ve learned early on.
I began with a focus on building a dividend portfolio, leaning toward REITs like VICI ($VICI (+2,31 %) ) and Realty Income ($O (+1,99 %)). Despite the market correction, these stocks held up fairly well, and by the end of March, my portfolio hit around $11K with an expected $440 in annual dividend income. I'm now working toward a short-term goal of $500/year in dividends.
In my latest YouTube video, I walk through:
- My first few transactions as a new investor
- What it was like investing during a downturn
- Why I focused on defensive stocks and REITs
- The early performance of my picks
- My next goals and plans for the channel
Would love to hear your thoughts—how did your first few months of investing go? Did you also start during a rocky market? What helped you stay calm or focused?
Here’s the full video if you’re curious:
Looking forward to learning from others here and sharing the journey!
DCA on O, yearly dividend goal of 500/year reached
Just missed the jump but still a great price for DCA on $O (+1,99 %) and reaching my yearly dividend goal of 500$/year.
