Diminishing returns set in earlier than most spending guides suggest.
## What matters most
Comfortable chair (the single highest-leverage spend). Monitor at eye level. Camera at eye level. Microphone close to mouth. Stable broadband.
## What matters second
Quiet room or sound treatment. Climate control. Adjustable desk if you alternate sitting and standing.
## What matters less than people think
Multiple monitors past the second. Mechanical keyboards. RGB peripherals. High-end webcams beyond mid-tier 1080p.
