QOTW: What is your “Why” for investing?
Thank you to everyone that has shared their thoughts in the question of the week so far! As the Community Engagement Specialist for BiggerPockets, I love to see how diverse real estate can be. Being so different, we all have different motivations for our "Why". Let's talk about yours! What is it now, has it always been that way, or did your mindset shift? What do you think caused that shift? How are your action working to reinforce your why?

I wanted to accomplish three things: financial independence in case I don't want to work or am unable to, the ability to enjoy life on my terms rather than chasing a paycheck, and the ability to help others.
I've hit all three of them, but now I want more so I can really blow the top off my third "why" regarding charity. My new goal is $300,000 annual income from investments, of which at least 30% will be for charitable contributions.
