At the same level as 2020 and 2021

After only eight months, we are almost exactly even with the dividends for the years 2020 and 2021. It will take until the last month of the year before we outrun the dividends for the years 2018, 2022 and 2023. At the end of next year, we will pass the record year 2019.

This chart clearly shows the damage that Covid-19 did to our dividends. It goes without saying, a financial loss is absolutely nothing compared to losing a loved one to the pandemic. However, that doesn't stop me from thinking about what my charts would have looked like without Covid-19.

Whether the Swedish central bank AKA Riksbanken made empty promises yesterday or if they really meant it remains to be seen, but the governor of the central bank made a statement yesterday quote "It is more likely that we will make three cuts than two cuts." unquote. If Riksbanken keeps its "promise", we will be able to start saving money instead of paying interest. Which in the long run will speed up our finish line.
