@Hattie Dizmond  I have downloaded all the podcasts & will start on them straight away.

@Dawn Brenengen  @Robert Blanchard  I had not seen myself as a landlord previously, but the idea of steady cash flow at retirement is what I am definitely after.

@Peter Mckernan  @Jeff S.  It is good to know that even starting as late as I feel I am, that by putting forth the effort, I still have a shot at making this a reality.

Thanks to everyone!

I am 45 years old just getting started in REI. My goal is to be able to secure a true retirement. My current retirement plan contains 2 small 401k plans and my self-employment income. My gut tells me I can make this a success. I found this site a few months back and have been studying ever since. I have upgraded to a Pro account to hopefully accelerate making up for all those lost years. Am I on the right track or just getting started too late?
