Monthly Dividend Stocks For 2012 Retirement

We all face retirement needs. As investors, we need to ensure our monthly income supports our lifestyle. My recommendation is to consider the 7 monthly dividend stocks below to supplement your income during your retirement years. The rate of annual returns in the respective tables below, assume the monthly dividends are not reinvested in additional shares. This assumption is realistic for many retirees as money is needed to fund living expenses during their retirement years.

Atlantic Power Corporation (AT) 8.3% yield
Baytex Energy Corp. (BTE) 4.6% yield
Enerplus Corporation (ERF) 8% yield
Main Street Capital Corporation (MAIN) 8.7% yield
Realty Income Corp. (O) 5.2% yield
Student Transportation, Inc. (STB) 9% yield
