And idk where you live but the very youngest i have ever heard of someone getting a job is 15 and that was under the table at a family resturant. If i were you i would get a smaller species of monitor. I wish i could help but my knowledge of them is very limited. I reccommend doing some research into them. Also what about bearded dragons and blue tongued skinks? I have friends who have both these species and theyre wicked cool. Beardies are pretty popular so if your looking for something more unique then really look into the BLue tongue skinks. I love playing with my friends one. Its very affectionate and personable, well as much as a reptile can be lol. If i had the space id love to get one! I hope this helps, feel free to post any other questions you may have or PM me about anything.
Way to copy what I said!
Like I said before a Argus monitor would be a better alternative if you can't find an ackie....
