I think conservatively, I have about $50k/year in cash flow from rentals (all but one are free and clear).
My original goal was to have about $80k/year by 2016, with an annual of 1 new property per year generating an additional $12k/year.
Unfortunately, it didn’t happen and I’m about 3-4 years behind. Wish I started earlier. Time like this I wish I was only 1/3 dependent on a “job”… Oh well.
I’m staying away from bonds…. It seems like international bonds have been cratering. So have REITs.
