Successful in real estate with Down syndrome?

I've begun my real estate investing journey, in large part motivated by the birth of our son who in October 2021, who was born with Down syndrome. Not knowing, what his professional or employment prospects will be as he gets older, I want to build a business that generates a high volume of cash flow to not only provide my family financial freedom in the near term, but to build a business that can sustain and fund his life in the long run. With that being said, after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad and other books on REI, I'm keen to believe that he would be able to have a meaningful role in the business it's self, not just as a beneficiary. So, it made me start to wonder if others know of people with Down syndrome or other disabilities have found success in real estate.

Let me know your, tactful, thoughts. Thanks!
