Animal Smiley 036 How much should I pay?

I thought I did this correctly the first time, but might have messed up this thread.
Anyway, I wanted to thank you all for your sound advice. I definitely want this puppy...but I just saw the most gorgeous morkie (from a breeder).....I can't afford both.
I wanted to ask, since I can't find info: does anyone here, or can someone validate the life expectancy of a teacup morkie? This little fella is expected to be around 3lbs, his parents are the same weight. He's 10 weeks old and the size of a hamster. The breeder will keep him for at least another 3 weeks, but I wanted to know if anyone here has a teacup (any breed) and if they've experienced any unusual illnesses? The breeder assured me that their life expectancy is in line with yorkies and malteses, but I'm skeptical....these organs must be so small. And I don't think anyone has been breeding these tiny ones long enough to validate the lenght of their life...have they?

Thank you!

DodgeR.....who is now torn.
