Buy a savings bond now.

 You will never run out of things you may want to buy, but very possibly you will run out of funds before you can buy them.  smiley-wink

If your system involves lethal voltages/life critical/flamable elements - you probably shouldn't need to ask.
The Arduino != PC.

What do you want to do with the stuff you'll be  buying ?
If you don't know, just buy everything.

Buy everything .. buy, buy, buy (that what banks want you to do)

Not with the "money in your pocket":  they only want you to "buy, buy, buy" if you use their credit cards, so they can charge you interest rates that used to get people tarred and feathered.

Back to muneeb's question...

Make a prioritized list of the projects you've been wanting to do, but couldn't for lack of parts/tools.  And a list of recent occasions where you've cursed and said "I could've done this in half the time if I had xxxx".

The answers to your question will become fairly (though probably not completely) obvious.
