The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which Andrew Tonner, technology editor and analyst, and Brendan Byrnes, Industrials editor and analyst, discuss topics around the investing world.

In a continuation of our series, two of the Fool's analysts talk about one dividend to buy and one dividend to sell in 2012. Brendan likes Eaton for its solid and steady dividend, and its increasing presence in international growth markets. Andrew dislikes Nokia for its unsustainable dividend and inability to compete with the smartphone duopoly in the United States.

Eaton looks to be a solid dividend stock going forward, but if you're looking for some more high-yielding companies, you're in luck. The Motley Fool has compiled a special free report outlining our 11 favorite dependable dividend-paying stocks. It's called "Secure Your Future With 11 Rock-Solid Dividend Stocks."

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?

Enter your email address below to find out what made Jobs so enraged!
