You'd better put any reasonably possible effort in writing code right the first time as you'll never have realistically the time to clean it later. Write your code as if your peers are violent psychopatics that know where you live. Or, more quietly, write your code as a message to the posterity. However, nobody writes code right the first time and any code one second after having been written is legacy code. Aim then at having the classiest legacy code ever.
