It’s time for my favorite type of post: a tally of the dividends I received in the prior month.
Given my strategy of DGI, it is really the dividend payouts that I care about. For each of the companies I invest in, I like to see a steady and growing stream of dividend payouts.
So how did I do in November?
Last month 17 companies sent me a dividend payout, adding up to a total of $445.
We are getting close to the end of the year now. Even though it looks like I will not make my goal of receiving $5000 this year - I’ll like end up fairly close to that at around $4600.
The following table shows the tickers of the companies that made a November 2018 dividend payout to my portfolio.
The table features the dividend amount I received and any change in payout as compared to the last pay-out moment.
| Ticker | Dividends Received | Dividend per Share Change |
|---|---|---|
| VZ | $45.19 | 2.12% |
| T | $75.00 | |
| CVS | $30.00 | |
| STAG | $5.92 | |
| OHI | $66.00 | |
| AOS | $5.50 | |
| ABBV | $48.00 | |
| ACN | $21.90 | 9.77% |
| ETN | $9.90 | |
| TXN | $7.70 | |
| CAT | $12.90 | |
| WSM | $12.90 | |
| DAL | $35.00 | |
| SPG | $20.00 | |
| SBUX | $36.00 | |
| SBRA | $1.80 | |
| CLDT | $11.00 | |
| TOTAL | 444.71 |
The fact that 17 companies sent me dividend checks is great in and of itself, but, alas, this month there are no exciting dividend raises to report. In fact just two companies decided to increase their dividend pay-out to me this past month.
Verizon (VZ) provided a tiny, but nonetheless welcome, increase of 2.12%.
Accenture (ACN) did better by raising their dividend by almost 10%.
Comparing the dividend payout of November 2017 to November 2018 shows an increase of $262 to $445- a Year-on-Year (YoY) growth of 69%.
This YoY growth is featured in the table below.

Hi TI,
I follow your journey and like the progress you are showing. To receive checks from 17 companies in just one month is really impressive. Congrats!
Keep doing what you do.
Cheers
Snugfortune,
Thanks for following along! Even though the market is pretty volatile these days - to say the least - it’s great to see that the dividends just keep coming in.
Cheers!
Good Job. Nice YOY increase. Definatly see what DGI is doing in our profiles. We share 4 companies this month. Keep it up.
Hey Doug - thanks for the compliment. The best thing of DGI is seeing it happen in your own portfolio 🙂
Thanks for stopping by!
Nice total for the month of November. As always it’s nice to see we share a handful of names. Looking forward to seeing how your 2018 finishes.
