September 2018 dividend report

Aaaaaaand POOF another month gone. The relativity of time never ceases to amaze me. Happy moments seem to flash by while boring moments seem to stretch to infinity. Whatever my personal experience with time is, I can always count on my dividends to roll in during the month.

No less then 9 companies payed me past month. See the breakdown below:

Date Ticker Amount (€)
05/09/2018 UN 3.98
05/09/2018 INTC 1.75
05/09/2018 PFE 6.7
07/09/2018 ADM 4.43
10/09/2018 IBM 2.3
16/09/2018 O 3.69
17/09/2018 ED 4.15
21/07/2018 VFC 1.99
26/09/2018 QCOM 2.71
26/09/2018 PEP 3.39
€35.09

Yeah baby! Although not has high as the monster haul of last month it stills kicks ass!

So this means my progress so far this year is still trending upwards:

And as for my 2018 dividend goal is concerned…it has been smashed! In the beginning of the year I wanted to receive €200,- in dividend income. With September totals tallied up I reached €220,78. So my new goal is to use every resource I have to blow my original goal even further away. Educated guess with a quarter left is that I can expect maybe another €90-100 in dividend income, so maybe I’ll reach for the €325 this year! Theoretically possible with a well timed buy (or buys) to get extra dividends in the last quarter.

Total dividend YTD 2018: €220,78.
Total dividend received ever: €309,93.

And now….the big moment, my YoY-comparison!

September 2017€8,56.
September 2018: €35,09.

Thats another amazing increase of 409,93% compared to last year! 

I’ll be off binge-commenting on your blogs now, I would love to hear your thoughts on your month (or mine)?

  1. Keep on buying Mr Robot, I want to see a 3 digit dividend income month by the end of next year! 🙂 You’re on the right track; well done!

    1. That’s quite the challenge you’ve laid out there RR. The prospect of a 3 digit month seems very far away but it might be possible given the right increases and capital deployment. I’ll think about it!

  2. Great work Mr. Robot, both on a nice month and for smashing the annual goal. I like that you’re being aggressive and setting the bar even higher! You’ve got a nice collection of stocks here and those payouts will continue to rise.

    1. Thanks DD, it means a lot! I always aim to improve, expand and evolve. That also means my goals. Apparently I miscalculated and set the bar too low. Now everything is on edge again, just the way I like it.

  3. Hi Mr. Robot,
    Great month and great progress, comparing it to last year. You did great job at saving and investing to quality dividend paying companies over the last year, so it pays off now 🙂
    Congrats on reaching your annual goal this early as well! It’s nice to see that you are trying to push yourself and lift the bar higher 🙂

  4. Sept. was a nice month Mr. R. We have 7 of those payers in common. We got the big 4th quarter and month of December squarely in our money hungry sites now. Tom

  5. Mr. Robot, congratulations on September! Over 400% growth is really impressive. And good to hear you have already smashed your €200 goal for the year, with still 3 months left to go! €300 must be attainable :).

  7. Are you kidding me? You crushed it Mr. Robot. You already reached your goal for the year and you still have another quarter to go. You had a massive increase from last year in terms of dividends received and you did so with an impressive amount of companies. Keep it up. Can’t wait to see what the rest of the year has in store for you.

  8. An excellent collection of stocks, Mr. Robot. Love how the payments are fairly well distributed among the payers. That was some monster YoY growth. Over 400%… are you kidding me? In fact, all of your YoY comparisons for 2018 have been impressive. Keep it up!
    So terrific that you’ve already blown away your annual goal. It’s all whipped cream on top of your dividend sundae from here, so pile it on.
    I shared 4 of your dividend payers in Sept… but not ED! Something could be wrong here 🙂

    1. Hey Stockles, great to see you here! I haven’t actually given it any thought on next year. €500 has a nice ring to it but haven’t done any math as to whether it possible or maybe easy. No idea just yet!

  10. Time waits for no one which is why it’s best to stay in the market during good times and bad. Have time work for you instead of against you. Looks like your portfolio is rocking along bringing you some nice passive income. I see we share quite a few names for the month of September which is cool to see. Keep up the good work.
