@ChizaramNelo@DrunkDividends And if it did, does it matter even 2-5 years out, let alone several decades? The point is if u buy at IPO on a first-mover advantage company, and it goes down, buy more and smile heavily later.
@BrandonWealth Well, the next Q results will tell if they have to raise or keep rates - A ship that takes water sinks - unless it's all hands on deck. I'm hoping for an all-hands, but I'm not seeing it.
@ChizaramNelo@DrunkDividends Microsoft held its initial public offering (IPO) on March 13, 1986. The offering price was $21.00 per share. As of the market close on June 4, 2026, Microsoft's stock was trading at approximately $428.05 per share. "First mover advantage" 1985 first Windows PC as Private Company.
@BrandonWealth Yeah, man, it's a tool to build long-term glory - just make sure whatever you do is either going to outpace via growth or cover with profit via Divy's
@BrandonWealth Shares you can buy:
$5,000 at $14.43 = 346.50 shares. Monthly dividend: 346.50 x $0.20 = $69.30 Annual dividend income: $831.60 Your Loan Costs: Annual interest on $5,000 at 4.45% = $222.50 - ur making money:) see?
@BrandonWealth to each their own BW - but even in CAD you will still make more in Divy's than the interest and the rest of the Dividends go on the loan - easy peasy
@BrandonWealth@aladdin2280 Don't they have too we are in a recession and it only going to get worse - stop loss ur assets, she's getting bumpy up here.
