As far to the east you can get without being in Canada.
Don't people who work for a company or store usually get a discount on items anyway? So if we all attain 51% of GW wouldn't we get a discount on items because we in theory "work" for the company? Then we could have the best of both worlds, high profit returns and affordable hobby!
You wouldn't get a discount you would get an annual dividend based on the profit of the company or the dividend cover if they make a small operating loss for a year.
You may or may not see a profit on the price you pay per share (this is called return).
The price of shares can go down as well as up.
The majority of share over most 5 year periods will out perform a normal bank savings account so long as you have a well thought out portfolio of diversified shares. You would really have to know how much risk (variance) you have on each investment and you would have to be prepared to at least make a small loss. It is recommended that you only invest 1/3 of your capital in stocks and shares.
If you don't have at least a fairly good understanding of shares (as I don't) then don't go just buying them willy nilly take a look at investment funds.
Investment funds come with risk level assessment by outside agencies. Whilst these are not an indicator of weather you will or will not see a return on your investment they do a lot of the difficult work for you.

Thinking with squishy logic tells me that if I buy the same value of shares as I spend on models I should get the profit GW makes on my models back in dividends.
This is VERY squishy logic.
