Dividend Growth Stocks

Money in the Trough – Investing A LOT in Dividend Stocks – February 2018

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

You know how some people eat when they get stressed, well, apparently I stress buy dividend stocks!  Once again, because of an EXTREMELY STRESSFUL family emergency, I’m late to post my February dividend stock purchases (we were in the hospital).

I have to admit, I didn’t realize I spent this kind of money on dividend stocks during the month of February.

I’m pretty sure this is most money I’ve invested in a single month.  This is also easily the most money I will EVER invest in a single month again.

Some of the purchases were limit orders that hit during the February dip, while others were buys on stocks I had been waiting for a decent price.

While I’m happy with all the companies I purchased, I really should have saved some of that dry powder.  Oh well.  At least I didn’t spend the money on hamburgers and milk shakes!

I'm a dividend growth investor who is aiming to retire early in 4 years at the age of 45. My goal is to live off the income my dividend portfolio and rental property produce exclusively and leave the corporate rat race. I hope you will join me in this journey!
