September has been a rocky road. I have bet big on Canadian REITS and so far they are down 4.5% or about $6,800 buck OUCHY. I have stepped up my options trading and now will keep track of the premiums I am getting per month. My strategy has been aggressive APPL put and call options. I am not scared to get assigned as I have plenty of room on my margin account to make such plays. Also since I am using margin now I will also track my interest charges along with my dividends.

Canadian and US Dividend growth stock strategy for the Grinders out there
Wow $2,088.65 in dividend income. Boy you're grinding the dividend income higher and higher. Looks like you've gotten a lot of dividend stocks which means further diversification. Great stuff!
ReplyDeletePretty heavy on the reits right now but we will see how things pan out
DeleteAG,
ReplyDeleteThose are amazing results. It looks like all that capital you invested a few months back really came through for you in September. Keep up the inspiring work!
MDP
Just trying to keep up with your pace man!
DeleteDo you need to still be so heavy on the REITs? Your portfolio is already generating a nice growing and stable income why chase high yield as much as you are these days? Still, an awesome month with great passive income earned on the dividend side. Interesting to see how the AAPL options play out going forward. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYes pretty heavy on the reits. Dont think I will be buying anymore till I pay off my margin.
ReplyDeleteWow, over 2k in a month... Impressive! I look forward to seeing how your REIT plays pan out and the options. The numbers are awesome so far!
ReplyDeleteYah hopefully the reits will rebound. Will takes some time i reckon!
DeleteSolid set of income as a result of the dividends and options trades. Are you planning on just collecting the cash and utilizing that to pay down the margin?
ReplyDeleteyes indeed, Collect and pay down is the plan!
DeleteDamn, I got some work cut out for me!!!

Grind on indeed :)
Killer work man,
Mark
Your month lookin good as well. You must be an avid moneysense reader like me!! Love Jonathan Chevreau!
DeleteAG,
ReplyDeleteI am sure your reits will rebound in the long term but how long do you plan on holding for? The dividends that you are getting will eventually catch up to your capital loss. 2k in dividends is crazy and I could live off of that. lol
Not sure on the length of the reit hold but will ride the storm for at least a year me thinkin
DeleteA-G,
ReplyDeleteThose REITs are really pulling the cart for you, my friend. I hope that experiment continues to work out for you. :)
In the meanwhile, huge numbers. I'm taking a more conservative approach, but I'm excited for the day I eventually hit income like this. Awesome numbers!
Best regards.
Yes they pay off big but I till i get this margin down its a bit of smoke and mirrors lol
DeleteHoly crap! Those REIT dividends/distributions are starting to roll in...and damn, that looks like some pretty sweet income. Sweet delicious dividend income :)
ReplyDeleteKeep it up! Inspirational as always.

Yeah they are getting good. I wanted some more immediate returns in case I need to pull some out and budget my expenses in the future. Part of it is visualization with me where I can see how much is coming in and adjust spending accordingly. Ultimate goal is still stack higher and higher!
DeleteThose monthly payers are really adding some cash to your totals. I probably won't hit 2k/month in dividends until sometime late next year. Solid month, keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteYah happy its at 2k but I gotta pay down this margin to hit the next gear!
DeleteAwesome! Gotta love being able to count on somewhere around $1300 in monthly payers every month! Even if some of that comes from margin and you pay interest on it. You're starting to get more of an avalanche than a snowball!
ReplyDeleteThats the plan. Snowball to a billion lol!
DeleteAsset is this true over 2k in a month wow thatz really awesome keep it up
