What's your experience on equities investment for dividend?

What's the best cash dividend you have ever received?
How much is it in percentage compared to your invested capital?

How long you usually wait to receive dividend after buying shares in certain company?
How long you have been dealing with equities investment?

Point of this question is unfocused. Not critical or important to investing at all. You can buy a stock the day before it goes ex-dividend so wait is only 1 day before you own the dividend but that is often a poor strategy as just buying tax liability. You generally do not buy mutual funds outside a retirement acct in December for that reason. There is no "best" dividend & will not be a big % of invested capital unless company is in trouble. Need a longer term focus on investing vs speculating

Investments pay dividends according to their internal schedules. Some pay never, once per year or up to 12 times per year.

Dividends are good, but not always the best. Ideally you want a combination of dividends and increase in value. The mutual fund, AHITX, has an annual dividend between 7% to 8%. The fund grows avg. annually over the last 10 years at just over 9.1%. The more you invest in this type of fund, the larger your dividend will be.
