Hopefully it won't be a dividend but when board member Susan Decker was asked in an interview at the Annual Meeting about a potential dividend down the road, she mentioned that she thought the way Costco structured their dividend was a possibility for Berkshire.
Costco pays a small regular quarterly dividend and then occasionally pays a special dividend when the cash pile gets to be more than they realistically need.
Sort of makes sense, at least to me.
