I appreciate that you are willing to post your portfolio. It gives me something to gauge my portfolio by. If I subtract the BRK.B and Oracle stock in my portfolio it is yielding about 4.5% so far. The dividend stocks were purchased since January, with the exception of 50 shares of MCD whose performance during 2007-2009 are the main reason I decided to go this route. The portfolio is in two accounts with 61K in a taxable account and 48K in an IRA.
