Social Security benefits come with inflation protection, but the tax formula attached to those benefits does not.

A 12% yield looks unbeatable on day one. A retiree who wants $60,000 a year needs only about $500,000 at that yield, compared with roughly $1.7 million at a 3.5% yield. But retirement income is not a one-year problem. The better question is which income stream can hold up after inflation, market cycles, and years ... The Dividend Growth Snowball: How Modest Income Today Can Become Serious Income Later
A full-time worker earning the federal $7.25 minimum wage trades 2,080 hours for about $15,080 in gross annual pay. A dividend portfolio can produce the same gross income without a time clock, but the required portfolio can range from about $151,000 to more than $500,000 depending on the yield. That gap is the whole story. ... The Portfolio That Pays More Than A Full-Time Minimum Wage Job
