DIVDAY!

As part of our "Retire Early or Keep Working" mantra we have changed our overall investment philosophy.  Buy low and never plan on selling.  It is more of a Buffett approach.  Search out quality companies that pay out reliably increasing dividends (Dividend Aristocrats).  So far all of this years picks have earned an average of 16% and that is not counting the 5% - 16% dividend payout.  As part of this new investment strategy we get to celebrate a "Dividend Day" every other week or so.  Hasbro was this months DivDay! 

This strategy will be filed under Pillar I.  The ultimate goal is to one day have the dividend income equal or surpass the working income.
