Well I'm late posting again, but better late than never! This month I finally broke the $35,000 mark for the ETF portfolio! I've been hovering between $33,000 and $35,000 since September in 2025, that's about 8 months! I've continually added roughly $800 to the portfolio each month and I just haven't been able to reach $36,000. It has been super frustrating but I knew it … [Read more...] about ETF Portfolio Update for April 2026

ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for January 2026
It's a new year and time to start working towards a new goal for the ETF portfolio. The first goal has been achieved ($2,000 in dividends in one calendar year) and now for something ten times more challenging! Actually it's twelve times more challenging to be precise!!

$2,000+ in Dividends for the Year! Goal 1 Achieved
Well, that is 2025 done and dusted. I hope your year was a good one and may next year be a better one.

It's the dividend goals that I get most excited about as they're the things that bring me true happiness as they … [Read more...] about ETF Stock Portfolio Update for October
ETF Portfolio Update for September
This is the latest I have posted my monthly update and I'm not even going to come up with a list of excuses for it, I'm just going to push forward and make sure that I don't make a habit of it.

ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for June 2025
Markets generally moved up and to the right in June and the ETF portfolio is now very close to reaching $30,000. I haven't decided how I will celebrate but I will treat myself as I think it's important to acknowledge our achievements. Every $10,000 increase in value is a big deal for the ETF portfolio as it is still pretty new. I would like to celebrate with a Porsche but … [Read more...] about ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for June 2025
ETF Dividend Portfolio Update in April 2025
The market has started to settle down a little after a few months of madness but all it takes to change that is another idiotic tweet. It really does feel like the lunatics have taken control of the asylum. There was a time when the lunatics were still in control but they at least tried to pretend that they were mentally stable and knew what they were doing. Now they just … [Read more...] about ETF Dividend Portfolio Update in April 2025
