What was your "why" for getting into Real Estate Investing?
A lot of the time i feel like beginners lose focus because they're "why" for getting into REI (or lack there of) is not as strong as it could be. In my opinion, a persons "why" is the reason for going through the most toughest situations and appreciate every victory (both big and small).
I know the biggest motivation of course is money and fancial security, but is there any deeper reason that has helped you get started or grow to the level you've reached over the years?
