Zuckerberg to Get $700 Million a Year From Meta’s New Dividend::Meta Platforms Inc. Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg stands to receive a payout of about $700 million a year from the social media giant’s first-ever dividend for investors.
Money from nothing. That’s one of the biggest reasons our system is so out off balance.
I mean… I hate capitalism as much as the next guy, but this isnt “money from nothing”… People bought or worked for shares…
The dividend money comes from worker exploitation, sure. But in order to get the dividend from those shares, you had to believe in the company and invest…
Disclaimer: i own no shares of meta and i dont have a facebook account
Do you own shares in any company?
I own shares in your mom.
She died in 2016. I’ve never really gotten over it.

Pointless bullshit and argumentive. Flat earther shit, sTOcKs ARe FaKe.
Hey it’s everyone’s least favorite user!
Did I offend the
flat eartherdelusional communist?How could someone I don’t value have any impact on me?
CLEARLY I’ve had an impact on you. You are all butthurt about me calling out your first earther Communist equivalent lol.
$700 million. A year. For one person.
That’s another of the biggest reasons our system is so out of balance.
It’s not money for nothing. It’s money for the risk you take when investing in a company. Why the hell would anyone invest into anything if there wasn’t possibility to get something out of it?
You just described gambling.
It is basically gambling yeah. Especially when you’re picking individual stocks instead of something like index funds. Bigger risk but also bigger plausible reward.
So can we tax that?
Yep! 20% federally at least (for anything more than $500k)
Dividends are taxed, yes.
Doesn’t this mean that Meta has ossified and the board no longer sees growth opportunities?
Send like bad news for investors long on growth and prospects of the meta verse.
Couldn’t this also signal to investors that they’ve achieved a comfortable market position and finally profitable ,and that they don’t need to go growth crazy mode anymore?
For anyone curious, the dividend was 0.0063$ per single share
Compared to Microsoft, which is 75c per share, and stock is cheaper.
87b vs 123b operating revenue. And that’s with a metric ton of money pumped directly into vr. FB can be run by cutting that labor in half. MS, not so much.
What do you mean diluted?!?!
Instead of Feeding Starving Children we should give HIM our Tax Dollars!
Why should we feed starving children when there are dying babies!
