What Really Keeps People From This Hobby?

I am sure that cost, perception,space, etc. are all "limiting factors" that may well have a great amount of bearing on whether or not someone gets involved in model RR'ing (or not).... but I am wondering if it does not go farther back in each of our lives than those "present factors" ? <br /> <br />How many of us were "drawn" to the hobby without a previous exposure to model RR's or Real railroads in our early years ? The young members among us have been drawn to RR'ing by their starter train sets (and maybe their Dad wanting to get another chance to run trains again...). <br /> <br />Maybe there are not that many among us, who had no such "early exposure" and just suddenly wanted to start a layout. I guess what I am trying to say is maybe what keeps people from this hobby was that they missed out on that magical time back then....
