June 2017 Dividends and Passive Income Progress

In June I bought 27 shares of FDP. I wrote a post here.

June was a busy month for me because I've got married.



We had a very small wedding as I wanted and then we went on a cruise for our honeymoon. It was the first cruise for both of us and we really liked it.  During our cruise we won another cruise, which we are going in October!

I like the fact that I own stocks of Carnival cruise lane and I am happy to become their customer too!

But back to my June results.

Stocks I bought and sold

In last two weeks I sold my shares of

WU - Western Union - to collect earnings and reinvest (IRA account)

DRI - Darden Restaurant -to collect earnings and reinvest (IRA account)

I could wait a little longer on DRI but it's story of my life... When I sell, stocks go up, when I buy they go down... :)

RIG - Transocean - Regular Brokerage taxable account - to claim losses to offset earnings. I plan to buy back in a month, just to keep this position.

Stocks I bought 11/23/2016

12 shares of DEO - Diageo at $100.48 in my IRA Account

100 shares of NEA at $13.33 - Nuveen Tax Free Municipal Fund - in my Regular Brokerage account 

I saw this fund on My dividend Pipeline  and was watching this fund.

At this moment I am trying to low my passive income for one more year in order to be qualified for FAFSA and so this purchase was part of this plan.

I did some transactions in my LOyal3 account as well but I will make a different post.

Thanks for reading and please share your thoughts.
