September is over and done! The summer heat is now past and the transition to autumn is picking up steam, as the days are getting shorter and the trees are shedding their leaves. Yep, summer is over folks and I hope the past three months treated you well. Mine was good, as we took a quick tourist trip to Salt Lake City, stayed a few days at the Big Lake camp near Bend Oregon, and I’m nearly done with my patio extension project (I am such a procrastinator).
Well, let’s get to the meat of this posting. How was my dividend income for September? Let’s do the numbers and see…

Nice! A bit short of $700 for September! While no new dividend income records were broken, it was a solid month. No dividend cuts negatively impacted the month’s payouts, so that’s always good.
With September’s end also comes the end of 2017’s 3rd quarter. So how did Q3 stack up against this year’s earlier quarters? Let’s see how well it did:
2017 Q1: $2215.26
2017 Q2: $2369.74
2017 Q3: $2476.31
Eh, Q3 was nothing to rave about, but overall it was a solid quarter. Quarterly dividend income this year grew by approximately $100 each quarter. That’s slow steady growth and there’s nothing wrong with that situation.
Other than the dividend income for the month and quarter, there’s really not much else about September to discuss. I hope September was a good month for your quest for dividend income.

Thanks for sharing quest. That is awesome. Almost $700! And it seems like a great quarter as well!
SEP was good for me too. Love the progress we are all making!

Thanks for dropping by Dan! While making almost $689.52 is nothing to rave about given the past two months’ spectacular dividend payouts, when compared to September 2016’s $624.10 (and September 2015’s $620.22) then it feels like solid progress. I’m glad September was good to you too. Gotta love passive income!
Good job the quarters keep getting bigger so it’s heading in the right direction. Keep it up.
Thanks for visiting Doug! Yep, as long as the quarters keep growing then I’m quite happy.
