Is Landlording worth it in the long run?

[Rick M.]

Given all the repairs and issues that we all deal with as landlords, is it worth landlording if you stick it out for the next 20 years on a property ? My over all question is, are you seeing the financial gain or find it motivating to continue? We are hoping to use our rental property as a nest egg to pay for our daughter's college expenses/schooling/income in the future. We have a mortgage, I make 600 dollars after my mortgage. I'm sure this number can change if the rental prices drop. If I just stick it out in the long term, do I have a better chance of being successful?
