June 2014 Pocket Change Portfolio Performance

The Pocket Change Portfolio (PCP) was first introduced on September 13, 2008 as a real money dividend income portfolio funded by the "pocket change" earned from my various online endeavors. Each month I report on the portfolio's progress and dividends earned.

Dividends Received

Total PCP dividends received during the month were $1,435.04. This is an increase of $129.89 from the $1,305.15 received in June 2013. Below are the PCP dividends received over the last 13 months:

- Jun 2014 $1,435.04

Annualized Dividend Income

Including new purchases and dividend increases, my annual PCP dividend income is now $14,082.24 at the current dividend rates. This is up $282.49 from last month's $13,799.75 amount. The PCP has never experienced a monthly decline in annualized dividend income.

Portfolio Returns

That's it for this month. The next PCP report will be mid-to-late July. Thanks for for reading!
