(FINANCE) a quarterly payment that companies make to owners of their stock. In theory, the source of the company's stock's intrinsic value.
A company's dividends are usually chosen to be as regular as possible; they can be considerably lower than the company's quarterly earnings, provided the company is growing in value. They are important, because they are the direct motivation to buy the stock.

A drink or cocktail. Stems from the concept of sharing the profits from a good harvest among the farmers involved, as in a glass of wine from a barrel or a shot of whiskey from a cask. Commonly used to refer to a drink poured from a larger stash (i.e. a bottle of whiskey or a batch of martinis).

An entirely imaginary future cash windfall, known by all parties not to exist, used as a face-saving alternative for admitting one has no bloody clue how one will pay for something.
Upon being presented with the bill, the customer looked the waitress square in the eye and replied, “no cash on me right now, but the Brexit Dividend will cover it”.
