Thank you for the compliment.  A decade now into my switch to DGI and I have finally learned enough to feel fairly comfortable muddling though it.  It helps, at the age of 70, to have the household budget made with SS and pensions.  I do not have to get all excited about our portfolio values.  

At the close Friday we were 1.1% off of our portfolio highs.

At the close Friday, our project year forward dividends are at a all time high, both because of the selective reinvestment of accumulated dividends AND the dividend increases we received from RY and CM this past week.

In June I will be making a weekly reinvestment - it is one of our 4 big months.  I do not know what share prices will do during June, but we will be, given no dividend cuts, at another record estimated forward 12 month dividends.
