Should I reduce my 401k contributions to zero?

Just finished reading Set For Life. 401k's let your wealth compound tax free but if you're in a higher tax bracket later in life, you're differing your tax bill to a higher tax bracket.

I also want to accelerate my accumulation of cash to use towards buying real estate. I think I'll get a much higher return on investment saving more cash now and buying leveraged properties than sticking the money into a target retirement fund in my 401k.
