"Dividend growth for the M* Dividend Select Portfolio has slowed from about 8.5% (2011-2013) to a current estimated rate of 5%."

Definitely food for thought, especially considering age, and if total portfolio value is important.

I would expect longer term that the growers will still do better at capital gains. Can't see making any changes
to my daughters Roths, unless given two choices I go with the higher yield. Each persons scenario is different,
but unlike the majority, they will both have teachers pensions.

Fooling around with the Miller Howard Calculator: sugar.mhinvest.com

5% yield with 1% growth vs. 3% yield and 8.5% growth, divs reinvested, the latter passes the former in 12 years.

5% yield with 1% growth vs. 3% yield and 5% growth, divs reinvested, the latter still behind at 26 yrs.

6% yield with no growth vs. 3% yield and 5 % growth, divs reinvested, the former giving off 25% more dividends after 26 years.
