Nowadays sustainable living is becoming high priority, low impact on the environment is essential. Therefore with a small amount of investigation you can decide if the advantages of wind power as an alternative energy, would work for both your budget and your lifestyle.
Fossil fuels have been proven to have a hugely negative impact on pollution of land, air and sea, instead of subsiding this is increasing at an alarming rate. One note of interest is that, if the entire universe were to implement the use of alternate energy sources, (such as wind power), then the affect on the environment in producing materials to support these energy providers, would be only marginal.
Viability
Although the cost of wind energy installation is high, a big advantage of such an energy source is the ability to save money in the long term. Factors affecting personal advantages of wind power vary but include
1) Your wind resource
2) The size of turbine itself.
3) Your tower height

There is no experience more exhilarating than personal satisfaction seeing your turbine generating power for your home. The first time I constructed a wind turbine it took me ages, but compared with the satisfaction I gained when it was completed, if it had taken twice as long it would have been worth it!
The internet has hundreds of sites which describe the process of what you need, and how to construct your own wind generator. Have confidence and self-belief and before long you will be building your own functional and money-saving machine yourself.
