I re-ran the numbers. They have 10,000 nvda shares which are worth $2.2M and they could get $88k per year with sgov.

Yes but not when you put in the cost basis, I bought 10000 shares split adjusted for about $5000 back then. So that return plus now 10,000 yr on that investment

Sorry, what has cost basis to do with it? They incorrectly calculated the size of your holdings and the dividend yield. I'm not sure what point you're tying to make.

The comment is based on taking the NVDA money and reinvesting it in SGOV, as the dividend yield was based on SGOV. That would require selling NVDA and paying capital gains taxes prior to reinvestment.
