My experience of trying to buy and collect Tokens during the crypto boom was that I purchased over 100 different tokens from 2021 to 2022.
The total amount of money I spent was approximately $500.
Out of all the tokens, only around 5% can be considered non-scam, while the rest can be categorized as scams because their value dropped dramatically, to the point of being worthless.
Even from monitoring the price charts, all of these tokens have the same price pattern, starting from a high price and plunging to a low price.
