Between paying off student loans, being in a low-income field, and buying an apartment, I have never had more money to invest beyond the max for retirement accounts. Until 2012. So, hot off the presses, here comes my bright shiny statement from Vanguard duly informing me they have reported my $26 in dividends to the IRS.
Anybody else getting their first one?
