So far this year I've gotten $1,083.52 in dividend payments from the stocks I own.  That's a pretty good payout for simply owning something and ignoring it.

Stocks are doing well, here's where I'm sitting today:

Apple (AAPL) +6.06%

Berkshire (BRK_B) +19.14

Coke (KO) +30.02

PF Changs (PFCB) +8.74

Sirius (SIRI) -11.95 (though, I'm up on the shares I bought on a dip)

Target (TGT) +3.29

Walmart (WMT) +3.83

WWE (WWE) -18.71 (bad stuff happened, it'll come back, I bought more.)

XCel Energy (XCEL) -0.87 (pays a great dividend, so actually up on it.)

Invest in peace...
