Yes I would for the simple fact that I am a single mom and that $money$ could help in my daughters future. As much as I love my babies my daughter comes first.

wouldnt even give it a second thought. My snakes make me happy too when im down. A million dollars however would keep me happy for a long long time.

I would definately miss them though, as I am driving in my brand new Red Porchse 911 Carerra 4 Twin Turbo...oh did i mention convertible.

Those of you that said no, I understand your passion for your herps, but until you have a crate full of CASH totalling 1 MILLION dollars infront of you, you dont know for sure that you would pass it up. Just my thoughts.

That is true...money cant buy happiness, but money can buy you a whole lotta chit that does make you happy.

Actually, I think its "money can't buy you love".

No way, Jose. I enjoy certain parts of my life, and if I had to give those things up over cash I know I would regret it. Money can bring a lot of things, but not everything. I am a simple kinda guy. Live cheap, do a few simple things that I enjoy. Seriously, cash aint worth nothing if it takes you away from your life.

"Money can't buy you happiness"

That only works for people born into money. Money can't buy THEM happiness, but I know it could buy a person who has worked all their life happiness!!! A lot of it at that!

No I wouldn't give up my herps and my hobby for 1 mill. For a good sized house (for kids), a decent car, upkeep, furniture, and paying off bills for 6 months to a year, would probably total more than 1 mill for us........but that could change. should have put a maybe up there!

Well money can't buy happiness but a million dollars could rent it for quite awhile so I would give up my herps. I would miss them all but I have struggled for my whole life so the opportunity to have an easy go of it for awhile has alot of appeal.

I'd have to say that the money would be nice at the time, but the novelty would wear off too soon once I realized that I couldn't have what makes me happy anymore. My reptiles are members of my family. They have names, personalities and are too much fun period!!!!!!!!! Knowing how much I would regret it down the road I have to say NO- I would not give them up for $1000000 dollars.
