ok,a quick newbie question...the dividens paid is banked into the account or is it sent to you by check?
and oh...generally, is it possible for high dividens counter like apollo and bjtoto can outpreform (give higher % returns) compared to unit trust (public mutuals) as in like 5-7 years of investment time?

thanks for the answer guys..btw, another quick questions..which one more risky in your opinion?..playing REITS, Dividens or Unit Trust for long term investment?
erm, is there any "minimum investment time" to get the dividens? or you just have to buy the stock before the ex-date?
just to confirm :
First & Final 5¢ = means if i got 1000 units i get rm50 before tax?

what about maybank?..their dividens payout not good?should be attractive given by their current stock price right?no?

i see...thanks for the advice guys, then i better buy guiness for its stability

just want to clarify..
i calculated guiness annual dividen payout..is it 6-7% nett(on average) annually after the 21% tax(is it 21%?)?
sorry,if im asking a stupid question very new here
