Very true,
Running something on the open Internet is super annoying. If you properly subnet, or restrict to VPN, I can see it as useful but then you have a whole other host of problems to conquer.
If you're doing a static page or such, no issue, but the second you're hosting a webapp or need to have a database, yeah.

For sake, just spin up a single server somewhere cheaper and run it all in there and vertically scale up after you've put the appropriate monitoring to know when you need to scale up. And put your money where it's worth it.
