As part of the Great Resignation, many workers in their 50s have decided to call it a career. That decision may have looked better when the market was hitting record levels nearly every day.

Today, that decision may be looking a bit frightening. But they may be looking at adjusting their portfolios to reflect the reality of a different retirement than they may have imagined. That includes dividend stocks.

Inflation is not going away anytime soon. And at some point next year, interest rates are going higher. That means that the stock market is likely to remain volatile in 2022. Still, the equities market is still one of the only places for investors to get a decent return. Investing in quality, reliable dividend stocks can be a way to diversify a portfolio.
