In our view, dividends should be announced and paid on an annual basis.

It’s possible to become wealthy over time by investing in dividend-paying equities for yourself, your children, and your grandkids. Dividend stocks, with small initial investments and reinvestment of those dividends, have the potential to make many investors wealthy or at least comfortable.
Do you pay taxes on dividends?
Yes, dividends are considered income by the IRS, so they are taxed. There will be taxes due even if you reinvest all of your dividends back into the original firm or fund from which they were received. For example, if you have non-qualified dividends, your tax rate will be lower than if you have qualified dividends.
Non-qualified dividends are taxed at standard income tax rates and brackets by the federal government. The reduced capital gains tax rates apply to qualified dividends. There are, of course, certain exceptions to this rule.
