Recent Buy

On August 23, 2016 I purchased 1.5391 shares of The Walt Disney Company (DIS) for $96.79/share. This brings my total shares in Disney to over 100 for the first time ever. I continue to believe this is a good long term holding to add to. My monthly contribution to Disney remains unchanged.

What do you think? Do you own some Disney stock? Visit the parks or take a cruise this year?

We are already through July and into the first week of August 2016 and it is another chance to update the monthly accumulation of dividends. I am also happy to see that I crossed over 100K pageviews since starting this little dividend blog.

June 2016 Dividend Update

June was a busy and exciting month for me with the graduation. The warmer weather lately is so much better than the cold winters here that seem to last longer every year. June is one of those bigger months in dividends for many people. We are halfway through 2016 already? Time is moving along quickly and that is reason enough to put every effort into our investments to reach our goals. Before too many years pass by and we don't get to enjoy our hard work and use the money on traveling and good experiences. There are some great bloggers who realize that our time is limited and we should look out for our own future and making the most out of it.

I've graduated!

Recent Buy

Scheduled for June 24, 2016 I purchased 1.5061 shares of The Walt Disney Company (DIS) at $98.91. The ESPN noise continues to dominate Disney and keep the price down under $100. Add in the other issues of the tragic alligator problem and the portion of the Brexit drop we had today it has stayed in the red. It is my hope that it stays down for a bit longer so I can buy more!
