My Annualized Dividend Income as of the end of November increased to $5,448 from $5,381 for the month. This means my dividend stocks will pay $5,448 in dividends over the next 12 months.

I made a few dividend stock purchases over the past month from dividend distributions. It looks like the economy is showing some signs of stabilizing and we will have fewer dividend cuts for the rest of the year.

My Dividend Income Goal for 2009 was $7,000 in yearly dividend income but due to the poor economy and dividend cuts, I have now revised that goal, I think $5,500 would be a much more realistic and challenging goal over the next few months.

Most of my stocks are held in my Zecco Trading account and the rest are DRIPs. The dividends from my stocks are reinvested but I am keeping track of the amount of income I could receive once I retire or choose to receive the dividends in cash.

I will post my Top 20 Stock Holdings on Thursday.
