Merry Christmas from RCI

My pleasure to give you the news I just got from my broker (Fidelity).

I wish I had... :o

who gave us a $100 Christmas present & last year Microsoft gave us $600. SO keep those OBC coming as I cannot see stockholders turning it down.

I'm confused. Can you explain to me what you are referring to?

dividends

[Merion_Mom]

And they are hardly "gifts". Companies pay out dividends as a function of their business plan. RCI's is only a 1.5% payout, so it's not exactly generous. In the scheme of things, that's a low dividend.

 

Of course, I also was fortunate to buy it very cheaply (not quite as good as captain bob's situation, but close), and have gotten a MUCH better return with the OBC as a stockholder. The dividend is just a little cherry on the top. :)

Does the stock have to be held an a general investment account or can it also be held in an IRA?

 

My accountant (who is me) told me to hold all investments in tax-sheltered accounts.:)

We have our shares in our Keogh Acct. and that is all I have to do is fax the proof of ownership of 100 shares. This year coming we will get $800 in shipboard credits. Now that is a nice tax free return. Pat

IRA should be ok, My 401k is acceptable.

Hi Big Bopper !

 

Yes, Royal Caribbean shares can be held in an IRA account.

My RCL stock is in a IRA account.Room credit is a great tax-free benifit.................Frank:)

[springtxbill]

I agree the OBC is a whole lot better than the dividend and is even tax free.:)
