    Dividends aren't everything. Look at Berkshire :)

    It is when I don't own Berkshire stock.

    Have you tried Berkshire Poor? It's got a much lower share price for people who aren't serious about investing.

    Yeah many people don't know Berkshire comes in two flavors: Standard and Poors

    dividends are typically quarterly

    i have some monthly stuff, but that tends to be rarer

    That would make viewing lots pretty fucking annoying

    no one has ever 'gone all irond will' on anyone at the fancy dinner (at least not for the years i've been organizing it). we've set a tone for what sort of experience we'd like- relative dressiness. if people can't meet this for whatever reason or wish not to, they're not uninvited. anyone from chat has always been welcome. in my experience, though, those people who may not wish to dress above casual do so anyway because they don't want to disrupt the spirit of the event. they aren't seriously pressured to.

    there's literally been one instance where someone got an eye-roll (kakos). it was because he very deliberately and thumbing-his-nosedly wore something to try and get a reaction out of will or myself.

    If I every organized a dinner where someone showed up in a utlikilt, the restaurant could charge a $500 NERD surcharge, and I would pay it. They were right.

    Girl who guilt-tripped me into coming just texted me: "I'm not coming." Meanwhile I'm the first one here. WTF.

    First one there means you can still leave before anyone notices

    Also, sometimes people suck.

    Fuckin hell I just had the most annoying encounter with a dude who takes up too much room on public transportation

    Guy sits on the two seater next to me. Now he wasn't a large man by any means, and seemed to take this as license to read his newspaper with his arms and legs splayed out. He pretty much planted his elbow into my hip bone, jabbing it in with every shake and shudder of the train. No matter how I squirmed or tried to minimize how much space I was taking (bullshit) he his elbow kept goddamn jabbing and he didn't seem to take the hint.

    I said "excuse me" and he went "oh sorry," adjusted, AND CONTINUED TO JAB

    I finally just got up and moved to a different seat because are you fucking joking me dude

    UGH

    Yeah, but you still get to keep the share in the company and the company has more cash, which makes it more valuable, which makes other investors want to buy it at a higher price.

    I am old and have never heard of Kimbra. Her stuff is pretty good. Maybe I will buy another album made this decade, bringing my total up to about seven.

    Yeah. My company has the same dividend at $92 a share that it did at $15. My "rate of return" now may be a helluva lot lower, but i can hardly bother to give a fuck. :)

    I don't think so. Cause (1920*.15)/4 = $72

    The shares are at $180 right now. Going for just 6% that should come out to around $10.60. Divided by 4 should make that two bucks and change.

    Part of that growth is that the shares go up in price as well, so they would be worth more for you to sell.
