Hi Lance @Seronous ,
It depends on what you want to do with Blender (definitely watch: https://cgcookie.com/courses/blender-basics-an-introduction-to-blender-4-x if you haven’t already).
For most things, you don’t need a Tablet, just a Mouse. For Drawing and Sculpting, a Tablet is better (but even then, you can start with a mouse…)
I’d recommend, you just get started with Blender…possible upgrading and/or extending of your hardware is for later concern.
