These are the posts every dividend growth investor loves to read and write about, the monthly dividend income report. And why not? It's a chance for us to highlight our “earned” passive income for the previous month and measure our own dividend income growth.

December was a record month for my taxable and ROTH account as I broke through the $300 mark for the first time ever in my taxable account while earning a record high $71.71 in my ROTH.

December also brought a new dividend distribution for a relatively new position in my ROTH account receiving payment from Unilever plc (UL) for the first time.

My end of year dividends from my brokerage account is $2,474.92 and from my ROTH account$479.95 for a grand total of $2,954.87. Not too bad for earning almost $3,000 without having to lift a finger.

Are any of the names below in your portfolio too? How was your December dividend income?
