How old were you when you started collecting Canadian paper money, and why did you start collecting? and what did you collect?

Collected coins when I was a kid. Started collecting nice looking $1's when the loon came out in 1987. Then I started to keep multi color notes when the Birds came out. I always kept modified and centenial $1's when I came across them. I then forgot about it, until I found them in a book when the first Journey $5's and $10's came out, and life once again allowed me to have such a hobby. I did collect paper money from Asia while I traveled (Korea, Japan, Thailand, Hong Kong, Macao, Phillipines), but didn't clue in to what I was doing. Thought they'd look cool in a scrap album someday I guess.
