Summary


  1. I received my first ever raise! An extra $1500 a year! I have worked numerous jobs in my lifetime but this is the first time anyone has ever given me a raise!
  2. I got a part time job as a clerk for a real estate firm. I work 16 hours weekends but I get an extra $300-$400 a month (after tax). It’s a six month position.
  3. I broke my 100 shares of KO goal for this year. I am thinking of finishing off 100 shares of ADM or UL but have not decided which yet. JNJ is currently 12% of my portfolio but I would not mind adding some more.     


Watch list of this month

  1. JNJ $90
  2. UL under $40.00
  3. ADM under $43.00

- August Dividend Update
What a crazy month for the world markets August was. We saw some crazy daily and even hourly movements as well as an overall market selloff. I think the markets may continue to stumble for some time and that's going to allow us to make some purchases...
