My Birthday and Recent Buys – TROW, MDT, & BEN

Today is my birthday and time to post my recent buys – TROW, MDT, and BEN! So, I guess, happy birthday to me, lol.

They say time appears to move faster as you age. I think that is pretty accurate.

I have mixed feelings about birthdays. On the one hand, I am closer to financial freedom. On the other hand, I am closer to the grim reaper. Thus, a double-edged sword.

Still, I am grateful for having made it thus far. I know a few people who didn’t live to see this age. I thank my lucky stars I am still alive and in good health.

In addition, as much as it can suck to get older, I realize that I am actually in better shape physically and financially then when I was 25 years old.

So, I will take that and celebrate! 🍰 🎉

Conclusion

Thus, we conclude my birthday and recent buys – TROW, MDT, and BEN.

As of this post, my portfolio is set to generate $12,956 in dividend income over the next 12 months. Wow, I am now in the homestretch of crossing the $13K mark in yearly dividends!

While I am back in the cash accumulation phase over the next 2-3 months, it is likely that dividend increases alone will push me over the $13K mark. This is awesome!

So, stay tuned for more as I continue work towards my goals and build my dividend dynasty!
