Dividend Update - February 2012 *Revised
*Well, I didn't check my brokerage account until today and just noticed that some of the dividends that are usually paid out in March were pushed foward to leap day on February 29th. So I've revised my February dividend update.
February ended up being a pretty good month for dividends, much better than was expected since I had 3 positions payout on 2/29 when I was expecting a March payout. Unfortunately since I'm really gungho about paying off debt I haven't been able to add to my brokerage account to increase my dividend income. That on top of work being slow meaning lower take home pay has had a double effect on keeping me from investing more.
I've received a total of $37.27 in dividends this year so far. March will end up paying out around $50 so it should be another good month for dividends.
My Roth IRA has paid out a total of $8.00 in dividends so far in 2012.
It's not much over the 2 accounts but it's still an extra $45.27 that I've invested that I wouldn't have otherwise.
