If ya'll want to see the current yields of Treasuries vs. Corporates, check out Bond Yields from Vanguard. Looks like longer term high grade corps and US gov't agency bonds are paying over 5%. Even Vanguard's GNMA and intermediate term investment grade funds are yielding over 5%.
Here's the prior TIAA dividend table [with a few more years courtesy of SURS] and the CPI:
Year TIAA CPI Real 1970 6.18% 5.92% 0.25% 1971 6.57% 4.30% 2.18% 1972 7.13% 3.31% 3.69% 1973 7.92% 6.21% 1.61% 1974 7.90% 10.98% -2.78% 1975 8.56% 9.14% -0.53% 1976 8.50% 5.76% 2.59% 1977 8.93% 6.45% 2.33% 1978 9.06% 7.61% 1.35% 1979 9.50% 11.27% -1.59% 1980 9.54% 13.52% -3.51% 1981 13.21% 10.38% 2.56% 1982 11.99% 6.13% 5.52% 1983 11.94% 3.21% 8.46% 1984 12.02% 4.32% 7.38% 1985 12.04% 3.56% 8.19% 1986 11.95% 1.86% 9.90% 1987 12.02% 3.65% 8.08% 1988 11.99% 4.14% 7.53% 1989 15.62% 4.82% 10.31% 1990 11.47% 5.40% 5.76% 1991 11.52% 4.21% 7.02% 1992 10.97% 3.01% 7.73% 1993 9.76% 2.99% 6.58% 1994 9.50% 2.56% 6.77% 1995 2.83% 1996 2.95% 1997 7.60% 2.29% 5.19% 1998 6.10% 1.56% 4.47% 1999 6.30% 2.21% 4.00% 2000 7.70% 3.36% 4.20% 2001 7.00% 2.85% 4.04% 2002 6.50% 1.58% 4.84% 2003 5.00% 2.28% 2.66% 2004 4.50% 2.66% 1.79%
The last column is the real TIAA dividend, after inflation.
Henry, as Bob aluded to, the Standard Method Payment from TIAA with depend on the dividend. If it starts rising with bond yields, like it did in the 70's + 80's, the payment will rise, if it falls, the payment will fall.
