I’ve sold 47 items since my last update to end the year of 2024. I made a total of $386.83 during this period of time between the last update. I bought a bunch of shipping materials that I will use over 2025, which cost me $130.98 that took the profit amount down. Without the shipping materials I would have made $517.81 for the period, or $258.90 a month. This amount a month is a very nice return for me on what I’m doing with the amount of time.
I now have a monthly basic store subscription on my online selling account which will be a cost every month moving forward for $21.95.

2024 Stocks Year End Value
I bought four more shares of Verizon on December 17th. This brings my total number of shares to 8.234 with a reinvestment dividend amount of .067 on October 30th.
I also bought seven shares of Chicago Atlantic Real Estate. I paid $15.78 per share. I believe the value of this stock is close to the book value and with it being a REIT it will have to pay out 90% of its earnings by law a year. The stated dividend is $1.88 a year, and they have issued a special dividend at the end of the past few years to make sure they are distributing as required. My yield on the buy of these shares is 11.91% at a rate of $1.88. They issued a special dividend of $.18 which equates to $2.06, or a yield of 13.05% in 2024. I will be reinvesting dividends on this like my other stocks I own. This equates at a yearly amount of $14.42 on my initial investment.
British American Tobacco paid a dividend giving me .197 more shares on November 8th.
Future Fuel paid a dividend giving me .691 more shares on December 17th.
My current value of stocks was $1160.10 at the end of the year. I paid $1053.81 for the shares without reinvestment of dividends cost. My yearly dividend amount is $83.58 based on the stocks I own at this point. This is 2.3 times my initial investment of $36.38 in changejarflip.
