Must be nice!

From the article:

While Arison pays himself a dividend of $90,000,000, he offered the families of the dead and traumatized Concordia passengers $15,000 each.

:eek:

Yes,,, it must be. Thinking back maybe I should have worked a little harder in school.

Then again, I'm happy with my status in life. Could make more but could also be a lot worse off.

$90M is not what it used to be. He has to pay the salaries of the Miami Heat. The $90M probably deosn't even cover payroll.

Quoted by an ambulance chasing lawyer..... Not all that credible. Who cares what Mickey makes.

I can't help but wonder what he would be doing if his father hadn't started the business though.

Ever read his tweets? He don't even talk good English.

That's one of the reasons there's too little wait staff and no live music on deck anymore. Gotta keep those 1% happy!!!!

I wonder if he needs an assisant.

Never got that far, to busy counting all those zero's

Actually The Board of Directors declared the Special Dividend of $.50 per share for all shareholders. Lots of companies are declaring these types of dividends as tax rates are going up next year. So, lots of tax savings to be had if the dividends are paid in 2012.:)

Mikey just happens to own 180 million or so shares!:eek:

I believe in Capitalism both the good and the bad. I found this article while I was serching the web. Yes I also know this is a lawyers web site. I just found this interesting.

Indeed an interesting article.

Carnival's prices have gone up!! Still the best deal around!!

The rich get richer.

(same old, same old)

A sleazy article from a sleazy site. Arison is getting the same extra dividend that every Carnival shareholder gets on a per share basis.

Yes it is an obscene amount of money but he is not enriching himself at the expense of the shareholders of the company.

What is worse is CEO's getting multi million dollar bonuses as they bankrupt the company and then wait for the tax payers to bail them out.

And even lower then that are ambulance chasing lawyers who feed off peoples misfortune and hold themselves up

as beacons of virtue. Yuck.

This is a special one-time $.50 per share dividend for all shareholders.

Somehow the original posted story did not mention that fact. http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/11/16/3100723/carnival-declares-special-dividend.html

Can't understand why the original article might have left off that info... :rolleyes:

That one time "special" dividend just gave me an extra $50 - since I only hold enough CCL to get the OBC. Hey, looks like I might go out to dinner tonight! :D

Not quite in the realm of "Looks like I won't be going to work EVER!!" ;)

I have never understood why some people are so jealous of others when they are successful.

His father risk everything and could have lost it all those years ago....

I am proud that the Arisons have made Carnival Corp such a success....

With the regular div. its $.75 a share. That more than makes up for last quarter.

Hey thats an extra $50 to all of us who have the stock to get OBC. Its extra money for all stock holders. As George said some stock holders are more equal than others. I'm happy for the extra $50.

I was kind of happy with the dividend myself...I am glad we both got a share...

Exactly. The article also fails to mention that at least 110 companies have declared special dividends or that Micky lost about $500 million in net worth as a result of Concordia.
