Considering that prasinus complex monitors can lay 2-5 eggs a clutch, 3-5 times a year, I believe you may keep a collection going without spending in it.

You have to be very good with them to get good hatching rates.
Nesting is quite complicated in these species and people get bad eggs very often. Me included.

They are surely fun to keep if you start with young, easy going animals. WC adults can do well but they just suck to keep (it's like an empty cage).

I think you should start and help us find the best way to breed these amazing creatures.

PS: big species will probably be incredibly expensive to keep and never pay for themselves, if money matters.
