Default Which machine?

Say guys, I'm tired of hand tools and want to get a real machine tool
besides my drill press. Strictly hobby and shop. Which would you buy

first,
a lath or a mill?


I personally can think of a lot of things that can be done on a lathe with a
3 or 4 jaw chunk, faceplate and centers... add a milling attachment and
you're set with just one machine. But then, everything looks like a
lathe project when you're building a lathe...
