March 2017 Dividends and Passive Income Progress


I am sorry that it takes me a while to write my March update. I am still in process of studying for Texas Real estate licence. Plus I helped my mom to move from Florida to Texas. Finally she is living close to us. And I got engaged. :)
As much as I didn't want an expensive ring, my fiance did a great job shopping at Blue Nile online, researching on diamonds. My ring looks beautiful and I know he got a great deal as well. :)

Back to my March stock update. I am being really inactive this year with my stocks investments. But...
March was my best month ever! I finally reached more than $500 in dividends. Since my dividends reinvest automatically, it means what even when I am inactive, I still automatically invested more than $500 this month!
