So far it's "Monopoly money"

Just like card payments weren't real money to junior when he was little, our dividends are to me. Don't get me wrong, I KNOW it's money.

But if our dividends miraculously appeared as bills and coins every payment day on the kitchen table instead of being numbers on a bank statement, I would feel differently.

For the moment, the dividends are just a tool to prove that my calculations and charts are correct.

They will be money to me when we start living on them.
