Cash Flow Now or More Upside Later?

What's up everyone! Happy Columbus Day!
Taking a poll to get a current read on the investor marketplace for Multifamily investing via a syndication model. :)

Would you rather have steady cash flow now (with downside risk) but a lower overall return (say 15% annualized over 5) OR higher upside in 3 to 5 years (say 22%+ annualized) but moderately higher downside risk?

I always want cash flow now.  Especially being somewhere in the ball park of the top of a market.  A lot can happen in 3 to 5 years that could negate the future benefits.
