You can hear the voice recording for the diary.
今月の配当金を確認した。円安の影響や昨年の積み立てが功を奏し、前年同期と比べて月額で1万円以上も受取額が増えている。
My dividends arrived, and thanks to the weak yen and last year’s investments, the monthly payout has increased by over 10,000 yen compared to the same period last year.
本来なら手放しで喜ぶべき成果だが、正直なところ、以前のような震えるほどの感動は薄れ、どこか「当然の結果」として受け止めている自分がいる。
While this is a significant achievement, I’ve noticed that my sense of excitement has diminished as I’ve grown accustomed to receiving these payments.
1万円の増額は決して小さくないはずなのに、資産規模が大きくなるにつれて感覚が麻痺し、初心を忘れてしまっているのが少し寂しい。
It’s a bit disappointing to realize that a 10,000 yen increase, which would have thrilled me in the past, now feels like a routine occurrence rather than a milestone.
どうすれば、初めて配当金を受け取った時のあの純粋な喜びや、資産形成への情熱を取り戻せるのだろうか。
I want to find a way to reconnect with my original passion and appreciate the value of every single yen, just as I did when I first started my investment journey.
「当たり前」という慢心に陥らず、一円の重みを再認識するために、一度自分の投資の原点に立ち返る方法をじっくりと考えてみたい。
I need to reflect on how to overcome this sense of complacency and regain the genuine gratitude I felt at the very beginning.
To be continued.
