Investing - Theory, News & General • How to extend tips ladder

I had so far been 100% in equities, now due to the uncertainty in the job market, I decided to create a tips ladder so that I can have a guaranteed income stream. I was thinking lets create a 10 year tips ladder and keep extending it year by year. But the way tips ladder is constructed, it takes dividends etc into account to keep everything smooth for 10 years, if I add another rung it increases dividends in previous years, is there a good way to extend the tips ladder and keep income smooth, or should i create as big a tips ladder as I can upfront.
