... assuming that the company will in fact pay a dividend, which is by no means certain.
Besides, the stock price is automagically valued down when the dividend is paid, so the company is either going to be worthless somewhen in the future, or they'll make more money. Which you can't count on either.
The bottom line is, in case some reader doesn't know it already, that there's no magic way to make money on the stock market. :-/
