Hello everyone I hope you are all doing great. This is my favourite post as I get to tell you how my portfolio did in the month of August. August was a quiet month for me as I did not make any purchases, I sat back and collected dividends.
My portfolio consists of two accounts a TFSA (Tax Free Savings Account) and an RRSP (Registered Retirement Savings Account). For my TFSA I earned $89.14, and my RRSP earned $209.09 for a total of $298.23 so close to $300.

2016 Dividends
Â
I have received a total of $2,373.72 this year. At the beginning of 2016 I set a goal of wanting to receive $3,500 so I still have $1,126.28 to go before I achieve it.
Increases/Decreases
In August my portfolio received two dividend increases and no decreases.
- On August 10th, 2016 The Keg Royalties Income Fund increases their dividend 2% $0.0900 to $0.0918.
- On August 24th, 2016 Royal Bank of Canada increased their dividend 2% $0.81 to $0.83.
So that wraps up my August post I hope you guys had a good month as well. Let me know how you are doing?

Looks like another great month in the books. I'm pretty sure you will hit your goal by year-end. What are your plan for September? Any exciting buys?

My plan for September is to remain on the sidelines and build up my cash. However if some stocks drop enough in price I might make a purchase 🙂

Barring any decreases it looks like I will beat my goal by $91.30 🙂

Way to go Freezeman. Nearly $300! That's cool from the comment above that you expect to surpass your goal, and that you know by exactly (to the penny :), how much you will beat it by. Mine is still a toss up. I'm not even half way yet, and with only 4 months left, it is going to be super close. We'll see!
