Should I Even Keep Contributing To My Roth IRA??

Hello All,

About two years ago I opened a Roth IRA after taking a college class for Personal Money Management since my teacher encouraged diversification and the tax benefits and all that jazz. Well since then, I have learned a lot about investing, taxes and what financial direction I want to pursue in life. REI to be specific. So I have been wondering lately whether it is even advantageous to keep my Roth IRA since I know that I want real estate to be my sole source of passive income and financial freedom. Also, I have learned that real estate is one of the best tax havens so I feel that it makes no sense to use property assets and paper assets as a tax strategy when I should just focus on using one type in order to maximize benefits and results. Thanks in advance!
