April is done and dusted. I thought that April was eventful on many fronts. Our LO turned one and we had small gathering with family to celebrate the milestone. We are really fortunate to have these people around us who shower her with care and concern. As a football fan, we were rocked with the attempt of establishing a European Super League. I won’t go into details here but I thought it was distasteful, bad timing and overall a bad idea. The thought of having a league that does reward teams/players on sporting merit just boggles me. Okay, with that little recap out of the way, we can go into a nitty gritty details on how our portfolio performed this month.
For Apr 2021, we received $206.75 from interests and dividend returns. Its the first month that we surpassed our target of $200 per month and it feels good to have reached a target. Hopefully the coming months will make up the shortfall which we experienced last month.
As we are inching towards the halfway mark of 2021, we continue to remain disciplined in our investment efforts. Sometimes it may be difficult to detach yourself emotionally, take a step back and examine the situation objectively. I mean, this is OUR hard-earned money. But I am thankful that we have each other to fall back on. By my rough estimates, I am confident that we will reach our goal of $200 per month in alternate income for 2021 with our continuous DCA entry into the market. Hopefully I did not compute anything wrongly and the data will back me up come December.
