Between $20,000 and $40,000
We’ve heard all kinds of words of wisdom from different folks, but we gotta admit that this saying is our favorite. “Work until you can afford a giraffe.” Why a giraffe? Because they’re expensive. But why a giraffe? Because they can cost the price of a new car! Why not work until you can afford a new car then? Because everyone has a new car, but nobody has a giraffe!
Giraffes cost up to $40,000 to purchase, though you can only own them in 20 states. The other 30 have a total or partial ban on importing exotic animals. So, work until you can afford a giraffe and move to one of those 20 states.
