Christopher Said:

how much does a complete solar panel system cost?

We Answered:

Your average solar panel system for initial startup costs anywhere from $10,000 to $20,000 depending on how much energy you want to generate, if you want to be self-sustained, etc.

It claims to pay for itself in roughly 15-20 years, but by then the system will probably need to be replaced or upgraded again.

At this point in time, it is pretty much a "rich get richer" scheme, for most people can't afford to put these on their houses.
