Let's compare our annual dividends in 2012

Seeing that there is a thread for income comparison.

I created this thread for dividend investors.

Btw, this is the very first time I started a thread.

I am getting around $8.6k dividends in 2012.

If my holdings stay the same, I will be getting around $9.7k next year.

 

[IronMac]

I'll be getting somewhere over S$1k a year.

Hi, may I know what kind of financial product did you invest, can get so high dividends?

u cant just look at the absolute amount, u have to consider wat is the capital size too.

My portfolio yields around 7% per annum.

My capital is $142k.

I have stocks like the telcos and REITs.

$400+ is a good start.

Yes. We must look at the capital size too.

Yes. 50k p.a. is a good challenge indeed.

 

[mommyboiboi]

Last year was 1.2k, and 3.8k for this year

 

[lowy]

Wah... How you hunt one? Got a website stating the company average dividend over the average stock price?

 

[Geeezz]

Just a question for dividend investors. Do you guys take into account of the capital gain/loss? As in if the capital loss is huge do you guys continue holding it?

 

[tenshiz]

Getting $300+ for 2012, in my very first year of investing though

 

[Departure81]

Yes. 50k p.a. is a good challenge indeed.

Bro, just wanted to ask, say you do get 50k p.a. from dividends. Will that be taxable? I know dividends dont have to declare to IRAS and are usually not taxable, but what about if they're above 20k? Or what if they're your primary means of income? Say when you've retired. IRAS rules like not very clear.

1) Capital gain for me is a bonus. What I want is a steady stream of dividends.

2) It depends on the reason why the stock is diving. If the problem is fundamental, then sell.

If you are a retail investor, I dun think you will be taxed even at 50k p.a.

However, if you are the CEO of Starhub for example and you have lots of Starhub shares. Then maybe the case is different.

Well, I dun really worry about this because I dun think I will reach 20k p.a. dividends any time soon.

 

[digitalguy]

You're half way there already bro! I believe you will reach it in the next couple of years.

How to calculate dividend yield?

 

[Dividends Warrior]

How to calculate dividend yield?

Give u an example. Starhub.

1 lot costs $3650

1 lot gives $200 dividends per annum

Annual dividend yield = (200/3650) X 100% = 5.48%

 

[Carnesir]

3rd year of working... Around 500 per annum nia
