So after a little bit of procrastinating and saving up, I went ahead and ordered a Nikon D50 (body only) I was debating between this one or a Canon but from reading online reviews and user feedback, it seemed that the D50 was a better camera to start out with.

I've been doing some reading and I can't figure out which one is a good lens to start with. It seems that everybody recommends a different one as their "must have" lens: 35-70, 18-55, 55-200, 24-85, 18-70 etc.

I'm not made of money

so I can't afford a lot of lenses right now so I'm looking for some recommendations on which lens is the must have lens. I can start off with that one and then slowly build up from there.

Thanks
