Retiring today is a lot different from retiring 30 years ago. People today are living much longer, which means you'll need to continue investing long after you've hung up your work coat or gloves for good. But retirees don't want to buy a run-of-the-mill stock. They want a company that'll pay out a superior dividend over time, as well as preserve their capital with minimal downside risk.
With this in mind, we asked three of our Foolish investors to offer up a dividend stock that they believe could be perfect for retirees. Moving to the top of the list were telecom and content behemoth AT&T (NYSE:T), aircraft and defense juggernaut Boeing (NYSE:BA), and pharmaceutical kingpin Pfizer (NYSE:PFE).
