Dividend Income from YOU the Bloggers – June 2020

june dividend income, community, bloggers

June was an interesting month in the market. Dividend cuts continued to slow, despite a few surprise dividend cuts.  Economies continue to reopen and the weather continued to get better. Still, the economic and political environments remained as tense as ever.  The Federal Reserve announced major restrictions on bank dividends and share buybacks for the first time since the Great Recession.  I know we have all felt impacts to our dividend income!

Despite all the madness and intensity, there is one constant that will never change: dividend income.  The dividend checks continued to roll in.  The third month of the quarter is always exciting since the majority of companies, and mutual fund families (such as Vanguard), pay their dividend.  Many dividend bloggers produce their best passive income results during the quarter-end month!

Similarly, since we are still going through the Pandemic, we thought we could share our articles that relate to weathering the storm still, including the corona-virus dividend cuts Lanny has received to the list:

Now that we all earned a ton of dividend income and set personal records, here is the next logical question.  Where do we go from here?  That is pretty simple, actually.  Let’s continue to save every dollar possible, slash expenses, and do whatever it takes to increase our income.

The community has demonstrated the benefits of remaining consistent, hard work, and investing as much of our income as possible over the years.  We truly believe that dividend income is the easiest source of passive income (Read our 5 Reason Why) and will continue to preach the importance of building that income stream as early as possible.  If you are not sure where to invest your hard earned and saved cash, we also have you covered with the following articles:

Now that you are motivated and armed with plenty of resources to save an invest, it is time to TAKE ACTION.  Let’s get after it and find some undervalued dividend growth stocks to invest in.  Let’s keep that dividend income stream flowing!
