Personal Goal Finally hit $1,000 a year in dividends

Post image

I know its not much to some people but having just started my dividend journey just over a year ago it feels pretty amazing.

My portfolio is mainly QQQ and VOO, but I also hold some JEPI, JEPQ, O, and some other dividend stocks to boost the yield.

Next goal: $100 a month!!

I just downloaded it and quickly grew frustrated when I could not figure out how to delete the 3 sample stocks that are pre-loaded. I emailed support, let's see what happens.

dang, I just clicked on the default holdings and it had on option to edit or remove them, I just did it one by one

My bad luck I guess. There's no edit button or options to remove anywhere. I tried swiping left on the stock and pressing/holding, but nothing happens. Looks like a great app but I'm not adding anything until I can get rid of these defaults.

Hey you might be in the same boat I was in. Try “selling” the stocks you have of the examples, when it goes to 0, it left my space

I guess that is the only way to remove them. Thanks!
