I'd keep mine... I am too reluctant to trust them to others, which is why I know better than to ever be a breeder of anything, dog, horse or beef cow ;~D
Sometimes I feel there must be something wrong with me for not having a problem selling them.But I do take very good care of my horses, feed, vet care, etc. and don't like seeing horses that aren't cared for properly.
One reason, other then for profit:), that I do sell mine at top dollar price is I figure if someone pays that much for one they'll take care of it. There are some people I would not sell one too. AND there are some people I know that even if they could pay the top dollar, I wouldn't sell to them.

This is the little one below our house that I cross alot riding. You can see from a previous flood that part of the bridge got washed away. That bridge has been under water 3-4 times since we've been here. The bridge got washed away about 3-4 years ago. Every year we have been told it's going to get fixed.
It's kind of hard to tell from this picture, and it's the best of the one's I took, how much water this is, but this creek bed is 30-40 foot deep.
This is in town, usually what Bixby looks like after a rain:
And, since I had the camera and was taking pictures, I took 2 of MY dream place. This place has 80 acres. Indoor/outdoor arena, hay barn, stables, pecan grove, and great great pasture and hay field. The lady that owns it rasies Arabs/1/2 Arabs. I bought my first Arab from her. The house is not big, it's pretty old, but well kept, just a frame house, and it's all set up really really well. She doesn't board horses, or sell them usually or anything, they're pretty much just her hobby, but she does it alot.
This is a view of the place thru the peacon grove:
