With transactions registered, it is easy to create a dividend income tracker with Google Sheets. However, a dividend income tracker in Google Sheets is not interactive. Instead of having different pivot tables and switching forth and back among them, I can create an interactive dividend income tracker with a single-page report on Google Data Studio. In this post, I explain how to create a dividend income tracker with Google Data Studio.

Why do I use my current money to invest in the stock market? Because I expect to have more money in the future. Why do I need more money in the future than now? Because of many reasons, the same amount of money will have less purchasing power than today. Therefore my investment needs to generate more money than today to protect my purchasing power in the future. That is the main concept of the time value of money where one dollar today is worth more than one dollar in the future.
