Average monthly income February 28, 2017, up 2.2% month over month

My average monthly income going forward is slightly higher than the goal amount for this month, thanks mostly to many stocks increasing their monthly payouts in February.  This is not something that will happen in March, when very few if any of my investments will raise their dividends.

In the past month, there has been a significant increase in the average monthly income going forward from $66.52 to $68.01, an increase of 2.2% since January 31.  Here are some of the changes that made it happen:

Corning Incorporated (GLW) raised its dividend by 15% on 2/1/2017.

Harley-Davidson, Inc. (HOG) raised its dividend by 4% on 2/2/2017.

The GEO Group Inc (GEO) raised its dividend by 8% on 2/6/2017 after failing to raise the dividend for the previous payment.

Archer-Daniels-Midland Co. (ADM) raised its dividend by 7% on 2/7/2017.

Gilead Sciences, Inc. (GILD) raised its dividend by 11% on 2/7/2017.

Wyndham Worldwide Corp (WYN) raised its dividend by 16% on 2/15/2017.

Prudential Financial, Inc. (PRU) raised its dividend by 7% on 2/16/2017 after failing to raise the dividend for the previous payment.

Eaton Corp. (ETN) raised its dividend by 5% on 2/22/2017.

Kohl's Corporation (KSS) raised its dividend by 10% on 2/23/2017.

In addition, the following securities paid dividends which were reinvested, resulting in a higher monthly payment going forward:  ABBV, CAT, ETN, OHI, T, VZ, and WRK.
