So th over-inflated bubble of the BP market doesn't concern anybody here besides me? Where are all these unsold snakes going? Let's not forget some breeders lately have had a 'my 2014 season was extremely productive, so here's a 50% off sale I'm doing to get rid of them'- with hardly any buyers. Or people getting rid of their entire collections on kingsnake.com at a fraction of the cost they spent to obtain/feed/breed/house them. Really? & he's not intelligent?

Are all the breeders here willing to house/feed all of their unsold snakes for the rest of their lives? If not, where are they going? Just wondering if the hobby is really about the animals or is it about the hobby itself?

As far as money & happiness goes, I've lived long enough to know that the 2 can be mutually exclusive. I've worked 60+ hrs a wk, several wks/mth. Was I tired? Yes. Did I have to worry about food being on the table or bills getting paid? No. Was I happy every single second I worked all that OT? No, BUT not having to worry about certain aspects of my family's life & comfort DOES make me happy
