That's true. I just don't think trying to pick stocks using say Yahoo/Google finance alone is a good idea and was concerned for my fellow mustachians :)
Sorry to derail the thread a bit, but why do you like DRIPs? At first I thought great, it reduces my trading commissions - win! Then I realized that during the accumulation phase, I just do my buying right after I get the dividends, and rebalance as part of my buying. It works out really well, since I pretty much do this quarterly anyway. I'm paying the trading commissions regardless, and having the extra cash from the dividends would just help me rebalance anyway.
Once reaching FI, I'll actually want to spend the money the dividends provide, so again, no point in doing a DRIP.
Also for foreign currency denominated securities (at least with my brokerage, for ETFs), you get charged their crappy FX rates twice when DRIPping (stupid cash grab, I know). Instead I pay it once when I receive the dividend, then roll the proceeds into a Norbert's gambit at rebalance time to get a cheap FX transaction.
