How To Play The Stock Market Wisely & Safely
Warren Buffett, one of the wealthiest investors in the world, bought his first stock when he was ten or eleven years-old. And what appealed most to the young Buffett, outside of owning a share or two in a large American company, was the dividend return he received quarterly from his shares of stock.
He was facinated with the idea of buying a share or two or more paper stock certificates and getting paid quarterly for owning these certificates.
The dividend and its revenue stream, along with a fascination for buying stock in profitable companies in money-making industries that were selling at cheap prices and paying good cash dividends quarterly, are the investment ideas that made him a multi-billionaire.I found some more information here.
