Maybe I'm reaching for yield a tad in some areas like HY bond and Reits but only about 10% of the portfolio.

My numbers are very similar... 2.2% equity, 3.1% bonds, and 4.4% real estate (VNQ). 2.7% overall. HYG is 20% of fixed income and VYM is 20% of equity. International equity also yields 2.6%.
So yeah, I like dividends too. I've tilted the portfolio that way, but I think it's reasonably balanced with the broad index funds.
