Investment Calculator?

Remember the book "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor"?

Remember when the author had a chart of the average number of properties you would have to own in a certain timeframe to net a million dollars a year? (The properties had assumptions as to rent and expenses)

My question is:

Is there an investment calculator out there that can provide this type of data?

Are you meaning software or physical functioning calculator?

I'm not sure about the whole "million dollar real estate investor" thing but I can recommend getting familiar with a HP 12C (Gold) calculator. (check e-bay or craigslist) It functions on Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) and has been a great for the financial world. There's also a book on amazon that a guy wrote specially for the HP 12C and RE investment. I just got it in the mail and can't recommend it at this point but will be checking it out as early as today to check his work.

Hope this helps.
