Dividend Income Summary: Lanny's July 2025 Summary
In July, we (my wife and I) received a dividend income total of $4,161.64. My other two Vanguard ETFs – S&P 500 (VOO) and Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG) - both paid in July. We had a solid increase month, 3 stocks is fine with me here in 2025. Dividend growth has been soft, so 3 stocks increasing dividends is great with me.

The Smartest Vanguard ETF to Buy With $1,000 Right Now
I'll always argue that one of the best ways to invest for the average investor is through exchange-traded funds (ETFs) because of how simple they make investing. Instead of trying to pick individual companies -- which involves more research (ideally) and higher risk tolerance -- ETFs allow you to invest in multiple stocks at once, often achieving instant diversification.

Top 15 High-Growth Dividend Stocks For September 2025
My Top 15 high-growth dividend stocks for September 2025 are collectively 32% undervalued and offer a 1.43% yield with 21.57% five-year dividend growth. The strategy's five-year annualized return is 11.22%, just shy of my 12% target, but it continues to outperform VIG and SPY year-to-date. Rotation in the list brings in DICK'S Sporting Goods, Elevance Health, Intuit, and Marsh & McLennan, replacing stocks that fell below the 12% expected return threshold.
