This is one of my main reasons for choosing dividend growth as my main investment style. As long as my dividend growth percentage is larger than inflation, it means that I have more purchasing power every year. (excluding the effects of tax changes or sale of assets).

This is what makes it so attractive to me. As long as I can make sure that the growth rate is better than inflation then it should translate to a continuously improving lifestyle. I have no idea what I need that growing pile of spending money for but I'm sure I'll figure it out along the way.

The other option is when you have a high DIV payer, to reinvest a portion of the proceeds equal to the current rate of inflation.  For instance, let's say you have an 8.5%er who rarely if ever raises the dividend.  If inflation is 2.5%, you can still withdraw 6%.
