Observations:
Next month should be better as I will get
my annual dividends for Rosneft and Gazprom – combined just under 3,000 USD
after taxes. On in all investor should me bracing themselves for low annual
growth and dividends 1.5-3% a year. Some companies could deliver more but this
would be too much exposure to overall portfolio.
It is a bumpy ride but currently I am not intensely
stressed about it. Portfolio will generate about ~ 7,000 USD in dividends and
will hardly meet any my needs in the short term. It is increasingly looks like that I need to
focus on financial independence at 65 like majority of the folks.
