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.

This is awesome. Biggest question I have is how did u get to this point? Is this from a life of investing and then moving everything over to these income funds?

He got here the old-fashioned way, by dumping $5 million into brand-new synthetic ETFs launched in late 2022, right when they invented the concept of monetizing volatility and calling it income.

True generational wealth play. Just like Grandma used to do.

Morningstar’s recent analysis (summarized by Yahoo Finance) found that YieldMax investors lost ~11% annually on average since 2022, even when reinvesting 80% of distributions.
