April 2024 Dividend Income

Time to post my April 2024 dividend income!

April was a pretty nice month.

Aside from a few dips in temperature, the weather was really good.

I got in a few hikes and made my first beach trip of the year.

In addition, I also crossed another huge milestone!

With my stock buys earlier in April, I crossed the $15,000 mark in yearly dividend income!

It was a hard fought $15K after all the dividend cuts last year.

This was definitely an awesome month!

April 2024 Dividend Income Total: $748.91

That is what I call a good start to the second quarter of the year!

This month shows a 12% year over year decrease from April 2023. Wait, what?

How did that happen?

Well, MPW did not pay out in April. Instead, they are paying their dividend in May.

Therefore, my dividend income is over $100 less this month.

Of course, that also means this May is going to be over $100 more. So, it is all good.

 

Dividend Raises

And now, without further ado, here are my dividend increases from April 2024!

  • PG increased dividend to $1.0065 per share, resulting in a $8.69 increase.

  • SO increased dividend to $0.72 per share, resulting in a $16.24 increase.

All in all, dividend increases for April 2024 totaled: $38.19

That is 4 pay raises this past month!

Every little bit helps. Small amounts add up big over time!

Step by step and dollar by dollar, these raises help me achieve financial freedom!
