Dividend Stocks are still paying

Dividends are the sharing of profits with investors. There really isn't any other way to describe them. If the company makes money, they share their profits with their stock holders. On a certain day every quarter (90 days) the member of the board of directors meet and discus everything that's going on that they think is worthy of discussing. Profits and shareholders are on the topic of discussion every meeting. Some would say "it is the companies main purpose, to meet the needs and investment goals of the shareholders". After all, without investors... there would be no company.
As of this writing there are 7257 companies trading today... 3536 of these companies have a positive dividend yield for their investors.  Of those 3536 companies, 652 offer 5% yield or better, 229 offer 10% or better.
