- 11 years and 291 days since I started this blog -
This rainy weekend didn't see much activity beyond playing bass Sunday night, but it was a great Sunday night.
That edition of the open mic that I'm hosting this month, the third, was the best yet, and lasted six hours, instead of the scheduled four.
It has gotten better every week, and this time, we acknowledged that 6pm was just too early a start time. I wouldn't be unhappy if it were 8pm to midnight, but we're going to try a one-hour bump to start at 7, and we'll see how that works next week.
I know it will be better.
Today, though, was a big day for my investment portfolio. I sold about an eighth of my position in my all-time greatest stock winner, which was enough to recoup my original investment. The largest position, by amount of income and capital value, now has an investment cost of zero.
This is the potential for all dividend stocks, even ones which, unlike the stock above, don't quadruple in value over only two years, because I deduct the dividends from the cost.
The value of my investment portfolios is at an all-time high. After just more than eleven years, I have averaged an 11.8% gain per year, and am getting a 23% return on my original investment every year in dividends alone.
I'm grateful for the way everything is working out for me. I take none of my good fortune for granted.
