During my time developing websites, I had always taken the approach of spend as little as possible and you'll therefore make it easier for yourself to make profit sooner. One thing that took me a while to learn in the world of business was you need to take the leap. One of my first leaps was deciding if i should use a free forum software such as phpBB or SMF, or to fork out for a vBulletin license.
When i first decided to buy the vBulletin license though, i was amazed at how great it was, the backend was so advanced, and the support and third party addons and modifications were vast. So now when i set up a new site focusing in a forum, i always go for a vB license. So if your looking to start a forum, or your running a free script, then I would highly recommend you fork over the cash money and take the leap, you'll be thoroughly impressed.
