" That doesn't matter to people who believe that dividends are free money."
Can you please inform Buffett that buying and holding div paying stocks, is for suckers.
I believe that the BRK companies are essentially subdivisions of Berkshire. In effect the "dividend" they pay to Berkshire are just the company transferring cash from one division to another.
Kind of like when you give money to your spouse. It's not new money coming in, it's just shuffling your own money from one pocket to another.
People get soooo confused about dividends.
BWDIK?
