2014 in review

2014 was a very productive year. 
 
I managed to achieve all of my goals for 2014 and then some. This was the first full 12 month year of dividend growth investing since I started in the spring of 2013 and what a year it has been. So in this post I will talk a bit about the goals I had set myself and how they turned out.
