Hey guys! Sorry for being so late with my April dividend report. I'm just so lazy.
So I'm going to do both April and May in one blogpost. Let's start with a short recap of April and then go to May.

In April I received a total of $176.61 in dividend income.

Some of the stocks mentioned above paid me dividend in euros. For reporting purposes, I calculated these back to dollars using the closing exchange rate of 1 June 2018: 1.16696 (€1 = $1.16696).
Last year April I received $64.50. That means that this years April dividend income is a 173.81% increase from last year April. Awesome!

Updated graph
Here's the updated dividend income graph:
All dividends are after dividend taxes of 15% or 20% (MDT), but I can reclaim this via the dutch IRS, so there's an added bonus there when I do my taxes for 2018 (in March 2019).
Purchases / sales
In April I didn't make any purchases. In May I made three purchases. On 24 May I bought:
- 20 shares of PepsiCo (PEP) for $100.26 per share, for a total of $2,005.25
- 20 shares of Altria (MO) for $55.84 per share, for a total of $1,116.85
- 15 shares of Philip Morris (PM) for $80.76 per share, for a total of $1,211.38
There were no sales.
