My Second Cheque from Nuffnang!


Two days ago, I received my second cheque of around SGD$49 from Nuffnang. As usual, Nuffnang is rather efficient. 

I really appreciate all the support I had so far from my readers. I love you all! Thank you for joining me on my dividend investing journey! ^^ 

This was my first cheque from Nuffnang last year. Check it out.

How far has DW come?

I just bought 3 more lots of Sabana REIT yesterday as I want to give my portfolio a yield boost at year end. Right now, I have 6 lots of Sabana REIT. As I was updating my Excel spreadsheet after the latest purchase, I suddenly become rather curious about how much dividends I will be getting next year going forward. So, I did some calculations.

*Please note that I assume dividends remain the same next year for the ease of calculation. 

1. Starhub: $200 X 10 = $2, 000
2. SPH: $240 X 5 = $1, 200
3. Singtel: $158 X 6 = $948
4. M1: $138 X 5 = $690
5. CMT: $95.20 X 7 = $666.40
6. FCT: $104 X 7 = $728
7. Suntec: $92 X 6 = $552
8. AIMS: $100 X 11 = $1, 100
9. First REIT: $64 X 10 = $640
10. PLife: $99.20 X 4 = $396.80
11. CACHE: $79.20 X 3 = $237.60
12. Sabana: $90.80 X 6 = $544.80

Estimated Total Dividends for 2013 = SGD$9, 703
Average monthly dividends = SGD$808.60
Average daily dividends = SGD$26.60

My calculation shows that I will be getting around $800 per month in dividends. Therefore, I have to change my dividend target to $900 per month for 2013. I am pleasantly surprised how far I have come since I first started dividend investing in 2010.

You can check out my very first portfolio update here. Ancient stuff! Be warned!
Back then, I was just collecting a mere $100 per month in dividends. LOL! >_<"

Time really flies when you are collecting dividends regularly and re-investing those dividends. ^^

For the month of September, I received S$275 from AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT. I also added 6 lots of Sabana REIT to my portfolio. I managed to get it at an average price of $1.07, offering an annual yield of around 8%. This will give my portfolio a slight yield boost at the end of the year. 

My unrealised capital gain has increased to around S$31k as of 14 September 2012.  I am slowly building up my war chest again. I am confident I can surpass my passive income goal of getting $700 per month this year. So, I am shifting the goal posts a little. I will try to achieve $800 per month in passive income by end of the year. ^^
