Passive Income in 4Q and entire 2021


The year of 2021 is coming to an end.

It is time to track the passive income I have received in the pursuit of financial freedom journey.

From 1 Oct to 31 Dec, I have received the following dividends.

$98 Savings Bonds (1 Oct)
$113.68 Keppel DC Reit (20 Oct)
$114 Savings Bonds (1 Nov) 
$139.16 Capitaland China Trust (8 Nov)
$43.60 Ascott Reit (9 Nov)
$270 Guocoland (25 Nov)
$182.67 Frasers Centrepoint Trust (29 Nov)
$111.60 Suntec Reit (29 Nov)
$482.90 Mapletree Com Trust (30 Nov) 
$119 Savings Bonds (1 Dec)
$128 Netlink Trust (1 Dec)
$225.55 Mapletree Industrial Trust (3 Dec)
$173.84 Mapletree Log Trust (14 Dec)
$462.60 Frasers L&C Trust (16 Dec)
$800 Aims Apac Reit (17 Dec)

All add up to $3,464.60 in 4Q 2021.

My passive income for the first 9 months of 2021 is $12,342.42.

Altogether, my passive income for 2021 is

$15,807.02


This is lower than the $17,093.12 of passive income for year 2020.

Last year, there were one-off capital returns such as $2,590 from Capitaland Commercial Trust after merger with Capitaland Mall Trust and interests from higher fixed deposit rates of above 1.5%.

I also have not included the paltry amount of dividends collected in my US growth portfolio. I think the total amount is less than US$100. I considered income from options trading as another source of active income from part-time job, hence did not factor it in.  

2021 is still a fruitful year despite the ongoing health pandemic, or rather endemic that humans are slowly getting used to while putting lockdowns and curbing measures that heavily impact lifestyle at the back of our memories.

I am optimistic and believe that year 2022 will be a better and greater year. Let the economy recovery continue, more borders to reopen, "low" interest rate environment to sustain after rate hikes and Reits to collect increasing rentals and pay higher DPU. Let's also look forward to the interests from CPF in early Jan 2022. 

Thanks for reading. Stay safe and strong always!

With love & peace,
Qiongster
