Ron, I brought up dividend payments because if I own a stock and the company pays me a dividend from their profits, that is a positive, at least to my way of thinking. It is extra money coming in, but not from the stock market trade. If I hold a stock long enough, I might get my entire purchase price back in the form of dividends from the company profits. If you and I play two handed poker and you win $100, I have lost $100. I'm too stupid to look at it any other way. I won't bore the board with any more remarks on the subject. Peace, WJH
