The Steve Jobs Betrayal
You may already know that in the final year of his life, Jobs revealed a stunning betrayal — and told his biographer, "I will spend my last dying breath... and every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank to right this wrong." What was it that made Jobs so irate — and why could it make a few in-the-know investors some major profits over the coming months and years?

Chris, Motley Fool is inspiring me to expand my thought-processing. I have fourteen stocks in one portfolio, as well as one annuity. I'd like to highlight one investment each month and give reasons why I like it. My initial offering is New York Community Bancorp. This company is consistent, paying one dollar-per-share annually. I believe sharecount is extremely important and reflects favorably upon management when it does not let it grow too much. STT compares favorably with NYB, but State Street's yield is much lower. JPM's yearly distribution is in line with NYB's, but again, the outstanding shares are huge and the current yield is smaller. WFC is at least twice NYB's price and also has billions of shares. BAC and C....oh, yeah, four cents-per-share-a-year from each one, making them strictly speculative stocks. GS? It has been reduced to an overpriced bank. I am BULLISH LONG-TERM on NEW YORK COMMUNITY BANCORP; It is in my DRIP. Consistency Pays Well, no matter what Ralph Waldo Emerson said. Next Month-R.R. Donnelley. Perhaps R.W.E. would have liked RRD. I am grateful to the Motley Fool Crew for allowing me to express opinions. Also, I acknowledge Google, AOL and Yahoo and NYB's websites which gave me much-needed information. Additionally, Happy Thanksgiving to those who read this.

Wells Fargo's Mr. Stumpf spoke on CNBC and indicated he would like to see a dividend increase for his firm, but he could not say when that might happen. His statement makes my investment in New York Community Bancorp even more valuable.
