July....Everything

Yup, haven't written anything in a while.  I'll blame the summer.  Been outside.  Been playing basketball, spending time in the gym, just being outside.  Also I'm super lazy.  That is half the point of this project, the enable my laziness.

Here is what I made in July from Swagbucks and Mturk:






Pretty shitty, but $70 gets me closer to my goal and gets my snowball rolling faster.

I made a purchase.  I said I wanted to buy something big and famous, so I went out and bought Microsoft.


Not bad. 

And then I made 3 dividends:
Which is pretty damn rad.
Made 2.61 on the month which is my best month so far.

I'll be down in August as I think the only dividend I'll get is from Realty Income Corp, but that's ok, I'll hit 2.20 or something from that and be happy.  Then I think I'll cash O, MSFT, and ADM all in September, but I haven't looked close enough to be sure. 

So, I earned $70+ from the net, $2.61 from dividends, and bought some high tech stock.  Not a bad month for the summer. 

I think as soon as I hit enough to buy 2 shares I'll be back buying Realty Income to keep pumping up that monthly dividend until I hit $1000 invested.  We'll see.  Maybe every other month or something. 

Is your money making you money?
