The Van Life Portfolio is where things get wild. Unlike our conservative retirement account, this high-yield setup is built for cash flow, not capital preservation. In this episode, we break down Q3 2025 dividend results, compare them to last quarter, and show how we’re managing volatility while keeping the income steady.
📊 Key Highlights
- Dividend haul: $5,562 this quarter (~18–19% yield)
- Monthly payouts: $1,575 (June), $1,777 (July), $2,210 (August—one of our best yet)
- Biggest movers: USLY, AIPI, FEPI, HTGC, and NVDW crushed it
- Problem children: FIAT, QVCGP, NPW, and IEP—still paying, but pain everywhere else
- Tactical pivots: DRIP off on risky YieldMaxes, capital recycled into undervalued plays, and double-dipping strategies around ex-dividend dates
🚐 The bigger vision: this isn’t just a portfolio—it’s a cashflow engine for freedom. Every dividend check pays for life on the road: food, gas, insurance, adventures.
