Your "First Note" Story. (how was it acquiring your first note?)

[Cameron York]

I am currently on my way on to buying my first note (preferably NPN's with the intent of Loan Modification) as I am currently learning what is needed and the processes. I have learned a lot and am slowly starting to understand the due diligence needed when starting out in this business. But throughout all this, I cant help but be curious as to what other Note Investors went through as they acquired their first notes/notes. I would love hear all the stories that anyone is willing to share. Advice/information is always appreciated, Thank You.
