Where do I "stack up" against other investors my age? 6 YR PLAN

Hey everyone, I wanted to post this thread and discuss our short term and long term goals. I'd be very interested in hearing other people's goals to see where mine stack up for my age. I am 23 years old, currently own 2 duplexes, 1 free and clear and 1 house hack with a mortgage, I make approx 50k a year right now, I don't plan on buying alot of units because I don't want so many that it becomes a large headache, my number of target units is 12. I have 4 now and plan to buy two 4 unit buildings early next year with 30 year mortgages putting 20% down on each, then taking my current salary plus the cashflow and paying off both properties which I have calculated should only take approx 5 years, maybe 6. At that time, I should be getting approx 52-54k a year in net cash flow on all of my rentals which essentially replaces my current salary and I could retire at the ripe old age of 29 but I plan on continuing to work, but only about 1/2 as many hours, manage my rentals and enjoy a nice lifestyle with my family. Is anyone else here on BP possibly "retiring" before 30, and by retire I mean the ability to quit their job and keep the lifestyle they want.

Being 23 and actually having any long term goals at all puts you head and shoulders above the majority of people your age, not to mention you already own real estate and have plans to buy more. Congrats on your excellent progress so far, and best of luck to you as you climb that mountain to early retirement!
