It's not worth it if you don't know how to use it, which is the case with approximately 80% of Go Pro owners. Then again, if you have some common sense and know how to set up a decent shot, it's worth it. Just don't expect the quality to be better than the one from a $100 digital camera, because it's not. It's a great toy, but it's more about the mounts and outdoor functionality than about the quality.
