  2. We have a lot of names in common for the month of January in terms of dividends received, Looks like you are starting your year off quite strong. Those taxes seem to bite though. Nothing you can do about that. We all have to pay them. Hope you reach your goal for 2015. Thanks for sharing.

    1. Hi DivHut

      I know that we have many same companies, I follow your blog closely. Unfortunately, the taxation of dividends, I do not have any options. The only hope is in the new government, but I strongly suspect that it would come to their senses.

  4. Why does SDIV pay "Return of Capital"? Do Finnish tax officials consider that as distribution and take 30% capital tax from that?

    1. Hi Timo

      I have no idea why SDIV paid return of capital, it was the first time. But you are right, Finnish tax officials consider that as distribution, so my total tax is 30%.

    1. HI Divindependencia

      Thanks! I'm trying also add the GE during this year, but I'm not about to add a PM, even if the share price would go down.

      Thanks for stopping by!
