Buy the tools and equipment and you only have to triple the amount of stuff you buy so you can fix stuff or make it to sell it!

You can get tools cheap at flea markets, garage sales or Facebook Marketplace though. And they last for years.
Though remember I label it Hard Mode for a reason

What about the materials?

The same. You can even get wood for free sometimes if someone in your area cuts down a tree in their yard and curbsides the refuse.
It’s not difficult. You just want to make it seem difficult to justify not having to put thought and effort into solving problems. You can’t just buy your way out of everything.

Free wood that you have to store in a dry area for year or so to season then mill and plane it?
You can literally buy your way out of anything.
Look at the Kardashians, they bought themselves famous.
