Investors in retirement or preparing for retirement have different needs than younger investors. Retired investors require a unique mix of safety, income and growth from their investments. Dividend income supplements Social Security and other income in retirement. Income is not the only aspect of a successful investment, however. Growth is just as important. Investors in or near requirement should demand their investments grow dividend income at least as fast as inflation - and hopefully much faster. This gives you a boost in your standard of living each year.
