To use your words: Be Reasonable. Spend as little as you can now to get a clarinet you enjoy playing. Judging from one on-line catalog, you can get a decent intermediate clarinet for about $1500; a 'professional' model is at least twice that amount. The $1500 you save might buy you a semester's worth of books.
If you are like many of us, you may not play too much for the first few years out of college while you concentrate on one or more of grad school, family, and job. (It was 15 years for me, and I have played in enough community bands to know that is not unusual.) When you do have time to start playing again, hopefully you will be earning enough that you can buy any clarinet you desire.
