Dividend Income

Dividend Income in 2015

This is our first year of dividend income, and a few positions were still made speculatively, i.e. not long-term positions. These positions are in Skyworks Solutions (SWKS) and Aramark (ARMK).

EMC Corporation (EMC) is on the list due to work benefit.

BHP Billiton plc (BBL) pays dividends every six months.

The total dividends received is 1375.97 CAD, and it is 159.28 CAD monthly. Wow! We received 159.28 CAD every month for doing nothing.
