It's been a pretty quiet month for me here in July, not a lot of purchases and no real dividend raises to speak of. My latest purchase was KMI a couple of weeks ago and I sure wish I would have waited to buy. You know what they say about hindsight though. My dividend total for the month was $256.50 which is my lowest monthly total since January. This was due to Walmart's (WMT) dividend paying in late June rather than early July.
In comparison, last years July total was $179.34 which means my dividend's for the month have grown by 43% year over year! I was also able to cover 11.5% of my living expenses in July from my dividend income. Looking forward to next month as it should be an all time record month for me.

My dividend income for July comes to $135.27 which is considerably less than the $171.61 that I made last quarter in April. This was simply due to some of my dividends paying off a day or two earlier in June (WMT and UHT) rather than July. Some times...
