Get a grip on reality - all horses are expensive. From hunter-jumpers to QH halter to gaited horses.
If you can't afford to play in any sport or business based upon the performance of a live animal, as you don't have the financial werewithal to do it without compromising the animal, get out.
And that goes for people who breed show dogs, show cats, show cows, and show mice, too. The only difference is the $$$ invested.
Either you care what happens to the animals, or you don't. Saying you can't make money in "the horse business" without sacrificing the animal to the dollar is a lie that proves only what an unsuccessful businessperson one is.
