I grew up on a dairy farm, but nobody could have been less interested in tractors than my dad. He hated mechanical things, and the only tractor we ever had was an 8N Ford, which I was never particularly attached to.
But I liked mechanical things, and for reasons unknown, I gravitated toward tractors, both collectable and for resale. Wife and I bought a farm in 1972 (when we were 24), and within a year, we had an 8N (for the mower), a McCormick W4 (for the rake) and a JD 420 with live PTO (for the baler). Started upgrading, then enjoyed auctions so much I started going to them and buying for resale if I could get a bargain. Guess I have owned about 50 over the years, and still have 7 or so.
As far as vocation, I used to be a loan officer for Production Credit Association (precursor of the Farm Credit System), and am now a lawyer.
