Recent buy: MO, ADP, GIS, SYK, T, D

I added the following to my taxable account on 10/10 (Thursday).

I now only add to my taxable account as I do not use a 401k with my new employer. I rolled my original 401k with previous employer to a self managed IRA with the same broker I have for my taxable account, so both accounts basically are "one" account, easier to manage. And I can just walk in the same branch and get all the same job done.

I have not contributed to the Roth IRA for many years now since the $5-6K or so annual contribution limit is small compared to the contributions I do to my taxable account. So the extra paperwork, doing the backdoor Roth IRA, and managing multiple accounts is not worth it.

I also want to be able to use my money whatever way I like before old age, so I chose to pay taxes instead of delaying everything. Anyways, below is the purchase list. I tried to mix higher growth stocks with low dividends with high dividend slow growth stocks to balance things out.

  2. Awesome stuff YD! Over $7.5k invested is great especially since you're building up those futures dividends to then reinvest again. I really want to get some more SYK in my portfolio. The yield is kind of blah, but the company and its growth make up for it.
