Hello and welcome everyone to my October dividend income post. Hope you all had a good month, October was another good month with some of my favourite Canadian stocks paying me. I received $644.05 in income from ten stocks and one ETF. Here is the breakdown per account:
- TFSA $397.00
- RRSP $247.05
If you’re new to the site my RRSP is all in US dollars and all of my Canadian stocks sit in my TFSA and LIRA. When sharing with you the income I receive I don’t convert the US dividend income into Canadian for simplicity.
Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA)
2020 | 2021 | |
Bank of Nova Scotia | $109.80 | $110.70 |
BCE | $61.60 | $74.38 |
Telus | $50.97 | $72.41 |
TC Energy | $26.73 | $41.76 |
The Keg Royalties Income Fund | $15.35 | $29.04 |
iShares S&P/TSX Capped Reit Index ETF | $41.76 | $25.50 |
Aecon | $20.80 | $22.75 |
Go Easy | $13.95 | $20.46 |
Inter Pipeline | $12.36 | |
Power Corp | $46.09 | |
Total | $399.41 | $397.00 |
Four of my top stocks delivered the most income this month. I hold this account with WealthSimple and on their Trade app I am able to purchase fractional shares of BCE, Telus, BNS and TC Energy so over the future months I will be plowing every cent I earn back into them, which will then increase my income. Another positive thing to happen was The Keg returned its monthly distribution back to pre-pandemic levels, that is why you see the big jump from them. My income dropped this month as Power Corp moved their dividend payout to November.
