This is a solid, time tested investment methodology that has proven results. It isn't glamorous or exciting but if you've got time on your side it can <i>yield</i> *pun intended* great results. I'd like to add that this strategy is best practiced in tax sheltered accounts such as an IRA or 401(k). Dividends are taxed at an unfavorable rate compared with capital gains so put your index funds in your taxable accounts and your bonds and dividend payers in your non-taxable accounts. Agreed.

It wasn't capital gains, but dividends that made up the majority of an investors return. Investors today are still well rewarded for investing in companies that pay their shareholders. There are several ETFs on the market now that focus on dividend growth strategies. Barclays has the iShare Dow Jones dividend (ticker: DVY). I am not a huge fan of this one as it relies on financial companies for most of its composition. But, there are others based on the S&P Dividend Achievers and Dividend Aristorcrats. Both focus on companies that consistently raise their dividends. So I agree with Tyler - Dividends are very important to investment success.
