As we step into the new year, it's both a time for reflection and projection in the world of dividend investing. Looking back at 2023, I'm thrilled to share the journey of my dividend income, which marked a significant leap from the previous year. In 2022, I earned $1158.44 in dividends, a respectable sum that fueled my passion for financial independence. However, 2023 proved to be a year of remarkable growth, as my dividend earnings surged to $1459.25, representing an impressive 26% increase over the previous year.

The past year wasn't just about the numbers; it was a testament to the power of consistent investing and the resilience of dividend-paying stocks even in uncertain times. Despite the challenges presented by global events, my portfolio remained steadfast, continuing to generate passive income month after month.

But without further ado, for January 2024, I received $132.81 in dividend income!
