๐Ÿ’ญ My Thoughts ๐Ÿ’ญ

This month was crazy. It was dividends after dividends after dividends. I almost made more than the last three months combined! I was like WOAH, what is happening right now. Portfolio is doing alright. We've reached 3K this month and Dominion Energy Inc (D) reached a new high score for the highest dividend recorded coming in at $1.05. Congrats to Dominion! Portfolio news aside, BLM protest ramped up dramatically this month and I'm still not shocked. I feel for those that have had to experience absolute unacceptable behavior from a certain group of people. The US COVID-19 death toll has surpassed 200K and as saddening as this truly is, we all have to have hope and faith that we will pull through and come out on top. My condolences to those who have lost during this tough time. Vaccine trials are on the way and looking well which shines a little bit of a light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully by 2022 or 2023, this will all be over and we can finally go back to normality.
