March 2026 Monthly Passive Income Report $1,520.53

Very lazy post as I just transitioned my son to daycare at the age of 2 years old. Back when my mom was taking care of him, I didn’t need to pick him up until 7 or 8 pm. Now that I have to strictly pick him up before 6 pm I no longer have the liberty to work on anything except my day job.

1. Dividend Stocks

Much higher this month due to Vanguard funds paying out there quarterly dividends.

Total Dividend Income: $53.30

2. Option Trading

The market recovered a lot during March which lead me to do mostly covered calls and some credit spreads as I don’t really have money to do full put sells. So I’ve been using the credit spread strategy to use less capital for some profits. Unfortunately a few credit spread went below my put sell so I either had to close it out early to avoid getting assigned the put sell.

Below is a breakdown of all the premiums I earned for the month:

  • Covered Calls: $1,201
  • Cash-Secured Puts: $0
  • Credit Spreads (None): $581
  • Early Option Close Out: -$410

3. High-Yield Savings

Nothing new here with my savings. I recently had to pay off a load of personal/property tax hence my savings interest took a big fat hit.

  • Total Income from High-Yield Savings: $66.63

4. Atlas Earth

I haven’t really kept up with Atlas Earth game play except getting the bonus rent hours. I am hoping to buy more properties to get to the next tier of rent bonus.

  • Total Income from Atlas Earth: $28

5. Amazon KDP

I don’t believe I will be selling books due to changing trends. I really don’t have the time or money to buy a subscription to create books.

  • Total Income from Amazon KDP: $0.6

Total Passive Income For This Month

  • Total Income from All Streams: $1,520.53

Here’s the full breakdown of my passive income for the month:

  • Dividend Stocks: $53.30
  • Option Trading: $1,372
  • High-Yield Savings: $66.63
  • Atlas Earth: $28
  • Amazon KDP: $0.60

Final Thoughts:

Not a great month, but also not the worst. I did manage to make $1,500 which isn’t something to cry about. Hopefully the market keeps at a steady pace so I can continue doing options.
