When setting your research one of things that must be considered is what your estimated time to conflict is. If you are in a small crowded universe, all expensive will kill you UNLESS you have something good to trade and can be successful in acquiring tech from others (which can easily happen if one considers trading terraforming services or if you are pop dropping an enemy ala the horde strategy). If however you are in a large universe with only a few players and aren't likely to have conflict until the late game (2460 ish) then you will be much likelier to fair well.

Bear in mind that an economic monster easily makes up for expensive tech settings BUT monsters take awhile to do so...
