End of May

On 22nd of May Ocean Yield paid us 49,97 € dividends. The Ocean Yield is still on the "sell" list because norwegians take too much taxes. Now Norway owes us 12,66 €. Another solution would be to increase positions heavily on Norway to make the extra work meaningful. Claiming back the excess taxes will cost around 4-5 € and will take few hours of time. It is shame that Norway started this idiocy. It would be great if every small investor in the countries with tax treaty would claim back taxes transaction by transaction. We bet that they would change back to old way of doing this just because handling those applications would cause awful workload and cost more money than what they expected to get.

On 24th of May we received 24 € interests from coop memberships. So far we have received 44 € interests from our coop memberships. This is not awfully lot, but investment is almost as safe than keeping money on the bank account. At the moment our received interest rate is 2,93% p.a. We are expecting to get a bit more interests on June.

At the end of the month we received our usual end month dividends from LTC Properties and Gladstone Capital. From LTC Properties we received 7,11 € after taxes and fees deducted. From Gladstone Capital we received 4,71 €.

Now we have accumulated total of 2370,49€ of capital income. Our target for this year is 3892,78€. So we have collected 60,89% so far.
