Here are the dividends I collected every year until the current day:



My total dividends collected from 2019 till now: $138,102

There are only 5 data points for 2026 so far, and the average dividend for 2026 will likely change as the year progresses. 

I plan to first receive $2500 (achieved), then finally $5000 in dividends every month on average.

By simple projection of the above chart, I will only hit my target of 5k a month in dividends after 2027.

Also, in this month, I made $9.50 from my side hustle - GrabFood delivery. 

All in, I made $3,726 this month from dividends, interest, and food delivery.

Onwards!
