April 2023 Dividend Income

It is a happy Spring so far and it is time to post my April 2023 dividend income!

It was a pretty darn good April.

I made some new stock purchases earlier this month, adding some nice forward dividend income to my portfolio.

In addition, I received a bonus at work totaling $3,000 (before taxes) and I also bought a new couch.

Overall, the new couch looks and feels great!

Some more good news is that there is another pay raise coming next month at the end of May.

More money earn is more money saved, which means more money invested!

Thus, speeding up the journey to financial freedom!
