As I'm writing this blog post, it's Friday, August 29th. With Labor Day around the corner, the temperatures here in Central Wisconsin are cooling. The high temperature today is set to reach just 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
Now that I have received all of my dividends for the month, I will take a moment to outline my dividend income for August 2025. Let's dig into it!
Net Dividend Income Topped $600
In August 2025, I collected $622.85 in net dividends (including ADR fees for British American Tobacco and Novo Nordisk, as well as withholding taxes for Novo Nordisk). Relative to the $568.35 in net dividends received in May 2025, that's equivalent to a 9.6% quarterly growth rate.
My net dividends were also up 61.9% against the $384.73 in net dividends collected in August 2024.
In my Charles Schwab portfolio, I received $584.70 in net dividends from 21 companies. Due to the sales of General Mills (GIS) and Clorox (CLX) in June 2025 and my initial August 2025 stock purchase of Novo Nordisk (NVO), my company count was one lower than in May 2025. Purchases in recent months of more British American Tobacco (BTI) and Enterprise Products Partners (EPD) were mostly to credit for higher income in this account.
I collected $21.48 in net dividends from three companies within my Fidelity IRA account. This was the result of my purchase of 11 more shares of Realty Income (O) in May 2025.
My net dividends received from three companies in my Webull account were $16.67.
Concluding Thoughts:
My net dividends through August 2025 are up nearly 30%. Overall, I still believe that my net dividend growth for the entirety of 2025 will be somewhere around 25%, with a percent or two of upside potential.
As this post will be published the day after Labor Day weekend concludes, I hope everyone had a safe, healthy, and relaxing long weekend!

How was your dividend income in August 2025?
Did you receive any first-time dividend payments during the month as I did with NVO?
