Informal Poll for new STR investors

I don't know how to post a poll in this forum, so please just feel free to post your response.

WHAT ARE THE TOP TWO REASONS THAT YOU ARE INVESTING IN A STR AT THIS TIME?

- Current income

- Hope of price appreciation

- Vacation home to go to

- Future retirement home

- Store of value/hedge against inflation

- Generational gift to the family

- Alternative to traditional retirement investments

I'll go first.  I originally invested strictly as a vacation home, with home of price appreciation.   As time has gone on - 19 years - I've realized that this is also a great generational gift to my kids - both as vacation destination and a lifetime income for them.
