Two things happened in June that have been rare occurrences lately: I'm posting on time-ish and I sold out of an ETF. I was starting to make a habit of posting late and now I intend to get back to posting on time, within the first week of each month. And the sale was the very high yield paying FANG covered call ETF FEPI. The 25% dividend yield was really nice but my … [Read more...] about ETF Dividend Portfolio Update for June
May ETF Portfolio Update 2026
I've made it a habit to post late for four months now, so I plan to do something about that!

It takes just as much time and … [Read more...] about May ETF Portfolio Update 2026

Latest ETF Dividend Portfolio Update
I'm a little bit late posting this update but I've been a bit distracted. Better late than never though. The ETF portfolio has hovered around $34,000 and $35,000 for 5 months now and I'm guessing it will continue to hover or go down from here, even with new funds added every month. As I'm sure you've heard by now, the world death cult has decided that its brown people … [Read more...] about Latest ETF Dividend Portfolio Update
