My Dividend Portfolio
Here is a partial list of companies I am currently invested in as of January 1, 2012. All my stocks are traded on The Toronto Stock Exchange (TMX.com). If you would like to follow the progress of my dividend portfolio, I write a blog about my progress every month. And, I try to post a blog about my portfolio's performance every trading day.
The discount brokerage I use for my portfolio is a Canadian online brokerage, Questrade. If you are planning to open an investment account, please use my promo code, LawrenceMartinez.

I have other stocks that I am starting to invest in, but these 5 stocks contribute the highest to my dividend income at this time. All 5 companies offer dividends on a monthly basis. This helps me create more capital for purchasing more shares every month. And, as long as I hold these shares (and buy more shares) every month, I will continue to get more dividend income from them every month. I plan to add 10-15 more companies to my dividend portfolio as my portfolio grows.
