February 2022 Dividend Update

Dividend Income & Portfolio Update

Personal Highlights – February 2022

  • This is going to be a quick update. Not really feeling writing an update this month as everything kind of sucks in the world….but I haven’t missed one since I started, so I’ll do a quick one!
  • Financial Highlights for February:

  • I’ve been really focusing on maxing my TFSA out this year.  Very early on I never contributed to it at all – as I was only putting money into an RRSP.  I  have since switched my focus.  As of January 1st, I had $29,614 contribution room available.  In the first 2 months of the year I’ve been able to contribute $7000.  I am hopeful by the end of the year I’ll have this maxed out.  Once this is maxed out – we will focus on maxing out Amber’s(she has 50k+ room) and once that is done – we can start seriously looking at paying off house/early retirement.  I will write a longer post on this “plan” in the coming months.
  • Made 3 purchases in February!  I bought the following:
    – 78 Shares of Brookfield Asset Management @ $69.00
    – 150 Shares of GoEasy Financial @ $155.00
    – 800 Shares of XAW @ $33.98
    These 3 purchases add an additional $1114.20 in dividend income.
  • RBNK (Canadian Banking ETF) increased their dividend which now allows me to drip an additional share each quarter.  I plan to continue to add to this position as well as Brookfield.
  • Received dividends from 7 companies and 1 funds.  Dripped an additional 28 shares/units.  Last year I dripped a total of 603 new shares.  So far this year I have dripped 114 in the first 2 months!
