I had a good last night on the sofa

I deviated from my plan to invest in a stock with payment day in November. When I looked thru my list I found 8 stocks that has payment day in November, February, May and August. That really surprised me.

However, all them had past the ex-dividend date. I will keep an extra eye on them in January. Ex-div date is a strong variable I consider when I invest.

My choice fell on FDUS, it has an yield just above 11%. It also disburses money every month. The sooner I can reinvest the better.

I try to live by the quote by Albert Einstein "Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it... He who doesn't... pays it."
