You should still buy sound cards as they are significantly better, at least the ones in the 100€ range. Just because there are premium mainboards with acceptable sound doesn't mean it is great.
Do you need better speakers to appreciate it? Mine are cheapo $15 ones from Amazon.
Yikes. Depends on your priorities, I guess. I love music and sound in general so I've put some funds into some decent gear. You don't need to break the bank, especially if you go the iem/headphone route.
Reminds me of the people who buy a expensive graphics card but use a cheap office monitor. Which is me.
Get used
I doubt it. Unless your motherboard is really old I think it won't matter. Sound is easy to do these days.
