Default OT What got you started?

Probably the wrong forum for this, not pre-war and all but I started thinking about what got me started in this hobby and why I continue to enjoy it.I really enjoy customs, it's just fun to mix my card hobby with my desire to design and build or create. Anyway, they are just fun. I have 2 sons (12 and 5) and its fun to be able to put together something that they are thinking about and really cheap compared to other things in this hobby. For instance, my 12 year old loves Ole Miss Football and we think up and create different designs for that. One night this week we put together this triple book design using a National Treasures design and some game used pieces that he got last year. The next day I came in from work and my wife said my 5 year old had been working all day on his customs! He even quietly cut up a jersey of his just like he had seen us do. I got into card collecting because of my dad and we still enjoy it together 30 years later, hopefully I'll be able to enjoy the hobby with my sons 30 years from now. Anyway, why did you start to collect or what keeps you in the hobby?
