What do you do that you would need a Mac Mini configured to cost that much?

 
 
I use the capacity of my CPU and RAM under Linux, it would only be
more burdened under macOS with needing to run WinARM in a VM, rather
than having native Wine with an x86-64 PC with Linux.

Then don't buy hardware (you can't afford?) that isn't suitable for your
workload.

Note that WINE works on Arm Macs. No need for VMs if the you the software
works with WINE.
