R2R,
I'm going to steal your dividend % chart for my own basic needs starting in 2017! I'll use a different color scheme though : ) It will help me keep better track of dividend increases/decreases throughout the year(s) making me a better investor.
When I do a quick read over the blogs, yours is one I check frequently. We kind of started to realign our portfolio's about the same time. While I was readjusting my portfolio I was up to about 32 to 34% in cash, then redeployed some cash back into the market. Right now, I'm averaging between 18 to 20% in cash investments--I'm excluding our residence and regular savings accounts in the total portfolio.
I'm still amazed at what you're bringing in per month, kudos! And MAN, I was really taken back with Dividend Hustler's liquidation!! But the guy is no slouch, he's a MONSTER and has a great plan in place for himself and his family. Kind of shocked me that a lot of us moved to cash in and around the same few to several months.
