Divvied up: TWX announces quarterly dividend


Good news, owners of TWX stock! Not only are you going to enjoy the benefits of more reality television, more syndicated re-runs and more pithy "commentary" from observers like myself, you're also going to be getting a nickel.

That's right, yesterday, the Board of Directors of Time Warner declared that owners of Common Stock will receive $0.05 a share, in cash, on June 15, 2006.

Huzzah!

So, the big question is, how many shares of stock would I have to own (which I don't---I don't own any TWX) in order to take advantage of the following Warner entertainment options:

See the summer blockbuster, Poseidon:

  • $8.50 for a ticket
  • $3 for a beverage
  • Total: $11.50
  • Shares of stock needed: 230

 To see the Broadway flop, Lestat:

  • $119.75 for a full price ticket
  • $45 for a solo dinner
  • $5 for a roundtrip subway ticket
  • Total: 169.75
  • Shares of stock needed: 3,395

So get your abacus out, dear readers, and start counting those shares!
