Movement in my portfolio in August:-
Sold:- Nil
Bought:- MapletreeCom (rights), Starhub, Suntec Reit, Keppel Corp.

Dividends collected in Aug: $2,502.97
2016 avg dividends/month: $1,166.02 [56.9% up at this stage cf. 2015]

Boring process of building up my passive income portfolio brick-by-brick (bit-by-bit).

Comments:
1. Bumper month in August.  New second highest record dividend fruits harvested (highest in May 2016), as 20 from my 28 counters paid dividends.  Looking forward to the day when my monthly dividends exceed $3K.

2. Did not anticipate that I could get all excess shares applied for MapletreeCom.  On hind sight, perhaps I should apply more?

3. Added Starhub to the nearest thousandth. Think Starhub can weather the uncertainties created by the 4th telco and I have sufficient safety margin.  But I will "close shop" on this counter for now and see what happens next?

4. Current worst performing counter: Keppel Corp (23.2% unrealised loss).  Added a little of Keppel Corp.  Hopefully is not throwing good money after bad, but this action did bring down my holding cost for Keppel Corp from $7+ to $6+.
