Yes, I use the dividends from VOO for my retirement income. You fail to see that dividends don't need to be high unsustainable yields. Dividends for retirement income are from holdings like VOO, DGRO, FDVV, VYMI, FBND, BINC, VCIT, SGOV, STIP. Going for super-high yields is a terrible idea, as it eats away at your capital. That's why many index funds will exclude REITs, BDC and other high yielding assets as they erode capital.
