Considerations before investing Some of the companies listed have mind boggling dividend payout.  Please kindly do your due diligence on the respective companies before investing .  Do also research on the withholding tax, dividend related tax and local tarrifs that will apply.  For a Singaporean, my recent dividend receipt per $AAPL share is USD$0.15 (instead of USD$0.22) as a 30% withholding tax was applied.  I will also need to declare the dividend for my personal income tax submission too.  Do check with your brokerage for more details.  In the end, the returns should beat the current inflation (with tax provisions made).
