Stock: https://www.google.com/finance?q=clm http://finance.yahoo.com/news/cornerstone-funds-announce-con... Supposedly has an 18% yield, which is pretty darn good. What's the catch?

I have no idea. From what I've made on the dividend + buying it and selling it, it could go to zero and I'd still have made money on it. Admittedly I bought it without much due diligence. Just wanted something to park my savings in for a while and some stock screener shenanigans led me to it. Robinhood has really made it easy for me to make silly decisions. Oh well, lucked out on this one.

Thanks for the honesty and sharing your tip. :)

Interesting. I was thinking most people from the target audience (tech) would have ad blockers installed. I can't imagine being a more or less tech-savvy and not using an ad blocker.

The most popular ad blockers also block W3Counter's tracking script, so those 110K monthly views it counted are just the people not running a blocker. Who knows how many more people visited but weren't counted.

Yes, although this is irrelevant regarding monetization (with adsense).
