Quote from bat1:
Let me explain this and see if I'm right
If you buy 1 share of XYZ for $30 dollars with a 3% dividend
or 1 share of XXX for $10 dollars with a 3 % dividend
Now I'm thinking I will buy 3 shares of XXX at $10
that will give me now a 9 % dividend which is a
better deal then 1 share of XYZ at $30 right?
as I own 3 times more of a 3% stock
My wife says no to her 3% is 3% no matter how many shares
you own
I'm saying no way! I own 3x more shares
more shares means more dividends...
No offense, but I hope your not thinking of investing anytime soon. You really should understand the fundamentals at least. Or maybe let your wife do the investing.
