I'm a fulltime iOS developer. Standing there waiting for it to compile was a considerable length affair (multiple minutes)

2-screen iPhone apps with no media might compile quick enough, but development of the type of apps which make money that would be a huge productivity suck.

So invest the money first, or put up with it and use the proceeds to buy something better.

"I don't have the money to spend so making money is faster and easier" is not a problem unique to iOS development.
