One third of this year is already over! Can you imagine? Time flies!
Net dividends received so far: $163.35, while it should have been $250.
Looks like there is lots of work to do. Fortunately, I should receive a bonus which will be partially used to purchase some new stocks, this month.
Stay tuned!
How was your April?
