Actually as I kid I had plenty. I worked to get everything I wanted.
I never thought about buying tons of snakes and breeding them before I had a way to get to work though.
And really, unless you want to live in the same town your entire life and never leave to even go on a small road trip or vacation, or EVER work anywhere but a small place 2 blocks from your house, then you are going to need to buy a car. What about college? Is he gonna walk to college too? He gonna walk his wife to their honeymoon too?
Priorities > Snakes
Youd rather have more snakes over a car? LOL wow okay bro
