on the raod to herpology

Even though you may love it, the money is most likely not gonna be there. Its funny to see a lot of kids wanting to go into animal science programs but they dont realize what the pay and job opportunities are. I would much more have a job that I tolerate with decent pay, that allows me to keep the fish/reptiles I want than to get a degree in something that interests me but I can't do anything with it and I end up getting some crap job, and not have the money to keep what I want.

Yeah herpetology isent exactly an easy job to get into..be easier to become a lawyer or doctor lol and the pay isent as good as most 9-5 jobs (unless your lucky) so its not a job you do for the money but more of a hobby you get paid enough to do
