My general approach is to start with a small-to-moderate assortment kit, and after each project restock the bins that are running low/empty with individual-value orders of 100 components or so-- Those are the values you're using a lot of, and so it makes sense to stock them more heavily.
I'd also recommend getting a kit of fixed-length jumper wires; it's much easier to analyze what you've built and turn it back into a circuit diagram when the wire connections are short enough to follow at a glance instead of chasing wires through a ratsnest.
