Unless you stick with wooly Buggers, peasant tail nymphs, and adams and thus have only materials for those kinds of flys then you have spent a lot more on materials than what you are ever going to get in the way of flys.
For every fly new fly pattern you want to tie you have an 80% change you are going to need another material that you don't have. And that supply will last most of your life.
Sometimes you can make a better fly than what you get in the store.
But then as DryRod said it is not really about the money.
