"FNMA paid 0.26 quarterly dividends in 2006 They are much bigger today"
I'm not digging in the file cabinet for proof but I recall I got 57¢/share in 1Q2008, 2Q2008 was about 23¢/share and by 3Q 2008 was 5¢ and over ........never to be seen again! Some of us here (and a few in cemeteries) have worried about dying of "old patience".
