Patience is a quality that I have had to practice a lot

With exactly one week left in the month, we are still awaiting more than 75% of the month's estimated dividends.

My husband's sale of Prudential Financial, Inc. Common Stock (PRU) and purchase of Realty Income Corporation Common Stock (O) last week resulted in an increase in our dividends on an annual basis and a slightly more even distribution of our dividends between the months. While this is a good aftermath, it annoys me that the forecast for the coming months of March right now is lower than March 2024.

Hopefully, future investments will restore dividends for the coming March months to the same level as the March 2024 forecast while increasing the remaining months of the year. As of today, the dividend forecast for March 2025 is approximately $125 lower than March 2024. The main reason I'm eager to get our dividend in June is because I want to start restoring the forecast for March 2025.
