I can't really speak from experience but am in a similar situation as you. I think the best thing to do is plan where you want to be in say the next year, two years, and beyond. For me my goal is wrecks (I would love to get into caves but moving back to NE they just aren't readily available). So with that said my upcoming PADI courses for the next two years involve, Enriched Air diver this fall as well as equipment specialist just out of intersted (plus it's cheap), then Rescue diver next Spring and possibly Deep Diver/Wreck diver if the funds are available and in three+ years start to do some of the Tech courses.
But as others have stated the most important thing is diving. The most important thing for me is to at least get two dives in every week if possible more. I love spending time in the water and that is where I would like to spend most of my money
