Silly Question on Dividend Payments

thanks for talking me down... Smile

I'll keep an eye on it and follow up here on Monday... Smile

PS...  I know I'm along way from being rich, or even being able to buy dinner at this point, but like a kid with a new train set, I was just anxious to see it work...

I remember when I first started investing.  It was an exciting time.  I saved money for a few years because you couldn't just invest small money without getting eatin' up by commissions.  No kidding, for years I did side jobs repairing cars in my garage for some extra investing money.  I bought shares in two mutual funds with low minimum requirements. This was before Al Gore invented the internet so I called in most every night and listened to the voice recording for 10 minutes waiting for the updated closing price on my funds.  I'd be up or down like 3 or 15 cents on my 100 shares.  I would have been much better off spending the time in my garage rebuilding a carb for $50 lol.  This was waaay back.  I'm 57 yrs old and semi retired.
