Of course you can spend much more, but compared to the cost of setting up and running an offline business, the costs of setting up an online affiliate home-based business are minimal. Most people spend more money eating out each month. A prudent approach would be to begin while you still have a job and continue in your job until you start making enough money to allow you to work at home full-time.
