Business Model Brookfield Property Partners LP (BPY/BPYU/BPY.UN.TO) owns, operates, and invests in commercial properties in North America, Europe, Australia, and Brazil. The …
July Income Report: Adding Some More Wine!
In September of 2017, I received slightly over $100K from my former employer which represented the commuted value of my pension plan. I decided to invest 100% of this money into dividend growth stocks. Each month, I publish my results. I don’t do this to brag.

But I continue to enjoy cashing consistent and growing dividends despite …

3 Years Ago, I Designed the Life I Always Wanted
