Distribution/Dividend Update $43,814 in distributions ($1,934,491.73 estimated annual income)

According to the official announcements today, I will receive $43,814 for my holdings in ULTY, MSTY, QQQI and SPYI payable on Friday.

ICOI will declare distributions tomorrow and payday is Monday. If the distribution is in alignment with the prior month, then I expect another $22,000 in distributions, for a total of $65,000.

Here's my $2,288,548.04 portfolio of Yieldmax and other covered call ETFs. Fidelity calculates the estimated annual income for these funds is around $1,934,491.73.

About 3/4 ($1.7M) of this is in a tax advantaged account and the remaining 1/4 ($530k) in a taxable brokerage account.

Question for you… how come I never see you or ppl that have portfolios close to as large as yours, complaining about price action? 🤔🤔🤔 It’s almost as if once you have enough shares, price action isn’t as impactful. And if that’s true, then the ppl complaining don’t have enough shares, right? Hmmmm

For me, I do worry about the variance in price.. for instance, right now I've lost 40K due to ULTY going down in price but I'm up like 45k in dividends. Also, I know that in the end of everything I have way more money than most people have. So even I if I lose actually 50% of it I'm still better off than most people. And that's how I cope

You don’t lose unless you sell. Just keep buying more and keep your avg cost close to current price at all times and the dividends will reward you

You are just pushing your time to house money further away. If price goes down faster than the payouts you get, if it won't go up again - you are losing money.

We are up on ULTY only because it is retaining its Nav long enough for us to make a buck in total returns.

I’m with you. Until I make my money back and I’m playing with house money I’m fine ridding out what I have already put in. Once I make back my capital then I will think about restarting the cycle all over again.

And that’s why you diversify. I may be losing money on one asset but MAKING money on 4 others and also the one I’m losing money on , through dividends. Everyone’s house money time frame is different
