Bandwidth

First I want to say thank you for helping me out.You are all a nice bunch of people.My final question is how much bandwidth should I buy for my website?I know personally I hate to go to sites that take forever to load.Is there any tricks i should know about what links and banners to use and what not to use?

I am trying to keep my main page not too cluttered ,Will that hurt me in the long run?Also I know the Halloween stuff will make the site slower but I like to get into the Holidays a bit ” title=”” class=”bbcode_smiley” />)
