    1. Hi W2R

      April is the best month for me in dividend income, because all of my portfolio Finnish companies pay annual dividends in April. The growth percentage is not going to be as awesome! :) For the past two years, I have acquired a mainly foreign ownership and reduced a little Finnish. (more diversification)

  5. Wow, the last chart is just awesome! May I ask you one question: how are dividends taxed in Finland (home vs. foreign stock-dividends)? Do you have something like 401k in the US?

    Cheers,

    1. Hallo DividElephant

      I pay taxes on the dividends of 25.5%. The Finnish companies' dividends broker will charge this amount (25.5%) immediately. Dividends from foreign companies the broker charges a tax according the international tax agreement, for example 15% in the U.S. This difference (10.5%) I have to pay later, when I do the whole year fiscal report. We don't have nothing like 401k.

    1. Hi
      A large percentage increase is mainly due to the low baseline and new purchases.

      Thanks for reading!
