I like to review the progress at least once a month to determine where I am with respect to meeting/achieving my goals.
These are the goals for 2014:
- Invest at least $30,000
- With new investments of $2,581.00 (COP and Regular Sharebuilder purchases) in November, I have invested $30,655.75 so far in 2014 until end of November.
- Goal Achieved
- Receive at least $1,500 in dividends
- With an extra $118.32 in November dividends, the total for the year has hit $1,404.32 which represents 93.62% of my goal.
- With the projections, I will be hitting this goal in December.
- Achieve at least $2,200 in projected annual dividends
- With the new purchases in the recent months and dividend increases announced, my current projected annual dividends stand at $2,211.28.
- Even though the projected amount is over $2,200, it has gone down since then because of KMP to KMI switch. But with purchases already made in December and planned purchases, I should meet this goal in December.
The goals page has been updated to reflect the progress until this month.
Dividend Growth Journey 
Over $30k invested in 2014 is very impressive. You’re definitely seeing the hard work getting paid off in the dividend income you’re receiving. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Tawcan. Looking forward to another year like this 🙂
Wow! $30K invested in the year…thats a fantastic rate of investment. Congrats on achieving your goal early.
Keep up the great work!

Thanks R2R. At the start of the year, I definitely did not expect to invest 30K or even close to that. Good that I was able to. Looking forward to another like similar to this.
Thanks for stopping by.
