Depends. If you want to yarr harr Switch games and don't care about online play then you may not have a better chance. If you just want homebrew + emulators I personally don't think it's worth it, but if that's really all that important to you then hold off.
For the record, there are about a dozen other devices you can use for homebrew + emulators. You can make/buy a Raspberry Pi handheld for less than the cost of a Switch and get more functionality than a Switch could ever hope to provide (minus playing Switch games).
At the risk of spreading FUD and sounding like Captain Obvious, Switch hacking is uncharted territory and you should be fully aware of that. I'm sure the hax authors will do everything they can to prevent bricks and such but there's no telling what Nintendo might do to try and counter this. At the very least you should consider that your hacked Switch may be permanently banned from online play. At the very worst consider that you could end up being "stuck" with a hacked Switch on a firmware that does not allow you to play the latest games.
So here's the bottom line. If you really want a hacked Switch, you care about online play, and you've got some cash burning in your pocket a second Switch is what I'd recommend. On the flip side, if you don't care about online play then you have a lot less to worry about and you may as well wait.
