The format of my investing updates may look a little different these first few weeks, as I want to play around with formatting/presentation. I hope to make it even easier to understand.
Year-To-Date Update
| 1/1/2017 | 1/6/2017 | Change since Jan 1st | Avg/Week | |
| Robinhood Portfolio Value | $2,186.18 | $2,296.18 | $110.00 | |
| Money from my pocket | $1,876.00 | $1,966.00 | $90.00 | $105.00 |
| Dividends | $59.27 | $60.94 | $1.67 | $1.95 |
| Gains/Realized & Unrealized | $250.91 | $269.24 | $18.33 |
Robinhood Portfolio Value = (Money from my pocket) + (Dividends) + (Gains/Realized & Unrealized)
- The average/week #'s are going to look weird because the average is using the first 6 days of the year. As time goes on, these numbers will look normal again.
Stock Purchases
I bought two stocks this week, Cisco (CSCO) and Sysco (SYY)!
- CSCO - Purchase Price of $30.30
- $0.26 dividend * 4 payments/year = $1.04
- $1.04/$30.30 = 3.43% dividend yield - Nice!
If you want to look at more information about CSCO and its' dividend, click here.
- SYY - Purchase Price of $54.62
- $0.33 dividend * 4 payments/year = $1.32
- $1.32/$54.62 = 2.42% dividend yield - Decent!

Dividend Stocks
- I currently own 32 dividend stocks
- 31 of those stocks pay dividends 4 times/year = 124 payments
- 1 stock pays dividends 12 times/year = 12 payments
- Total dividend payments needed to get paid "Every Other Day" - 183
- 183 - 124 - 12 = 47
- 47 more payments needed or approximately 12 more dividend stocks.
I am able to buy so many different stocks due to not paying commission fees, thanks to the trading app called Robinhood. If you want to learn more about Robinhood, click here.
