New member from the western suburbs of Chicago

Just wanted to introduce myself, I'm located in the west suburbs of Chicago and have little experience yet in real estate. I am 38 married with two boys ages 4 and 2. I have read several books and just purchased the package deal here on bigger pockets for the two books written by Mr Turner. I have spent the past 13+ years in law enforcement and have 5 more to go till I reach my 20 for a full pension. My goal is to own 100 units by that time. I plan on investing in only multifamily apartments and build up a portfolio that will allow my family to live without having to put in a 9-5. I am currently attending business school full time through SIU and will graduate at the end of 2018. My short term goal is to make my first multifamily purchase by the end of next year!
