Passive Income in 2Q and 1H 2021

Half the pandemic-ridden year of 2021 has almost passed and it is now time to stocktake the dividends collected as passive income from my investments.

I collected the interests from Singapore Savings Bonds (SSB) from Apr to Jun, and dividends from the companies and Reits in my CDP and SRS portfolios.

The total amount of passive income in Q2 2021 is $5,228.99, a 26% YoY increase from Q2 2020's $4,151.49.


Together with the $2,372.66 passive income in Q1, my passive income in the first half 2021 is

$7,601.65

This amount is not a lot but $633/month on average is at least able to cover all my basic necessities and essential expenditure for 6 months, except for my monthly insurance premiums. 

The following are the dividend streams received or going to be received in cash or shares, and savings bond interests. Shiok man!

$98 Savings Bonds (1 Apr)
$107 Savings Bonds (1 May)
$96 Sembcorp Ind (6 May)
$470 ST Engineering (7 May) SRS
$71.50 Comfortdelgro (20 May) SRS
$175.92 Frasers CTrust (28 May)
$42 OUE (28 May)
$102.25 Suntec Reit (28 May)
$109 Savings Bonds (1 Jun)
$585.20 Mapletree Com Trust (4 Jun)
$165 Mapletree Ind Trust (8 Jun)
$563 Ascendas Reit (9 Jun)
$127.50 Netlink Trust (9 Jun)
$172.88 Mapletree Log Trust (10 Jun)
$684 Frasers L&C Trust (18 Jun)
$928 Aims Apac Reit (24 Jun)
$237.12 UOB (25 Jun) 9 shares @ $26.31
$110.50 Mapletree Ind Trust (28 Jun)
$381.12 OCBC (29 Jun) SRS 32 shares @$11.93

I hope to collect more passive income in 2H 2021 and channel most of them towards my US growth stocks portfolio, letting the combo power of growth and compounding do magic. Practically, my plan is using free money to invest.

I will continue to live frugally, save up, invest in any bear or bull market conditions, slowly and steadily build up my investments. WFH more frequently does help to save more time and money to assist in this cause.

Thanks for reading. Stay calm and remain safe as always! Huat ah!

With love & peace,
Qiongster
