That cracks me up too, don't have enough time LOL. A snake is just a little more work than a pet rock! Just change water, feed and spot clean once a week and you are good, especially if you use coconut husk substrate, don't even have to spot clean very much. Maybe if you feed live and have to drive to the pet store every week, or maybe if you raise your own rodents... Raising my own rodents saves me a ton of money but it takes me about three hours a week in cleaning and maintenance to produce about 160 rodents per month. I probably spend less than an hour per week on all 20 snakes, mainly just feeding and occasional spot cleaning. And maybe a couple hours every other month for a full substrate replacement.
