I've been buying VTI and BND throughout the year towards the end of each month.  Traditional dividend stocks continue to underperform so I'll gladly add to these position and start new positions as well.

October 2021 Net Worth

 

Here are my net worth totals for the end of October.

Another great month! I picked up $35K during October and this marks the 5th consecutive month in the double comma club.

The markets continue to defy gravity and are up roughly 25% for the year. 

November won't be so rosy as I have spent quite a bit on home renovations. Spending money to add small/large pleasures from time to time is what life is all about. Hoarding money and just watching numbers increase on a spreadsheet seems a bit more strange to me now.

Hope all is well with everyone out there!
