Anon it depends on what you're talking about with "making money". But let's go down the list:
>Can you do all your work effectively with just a Thinkpad or do you need a powerful PC?
Depends on what you're doing. If it's trading or investing on the stock market, anything is good - even a toaster oven. If you're mining crypto, you'll need a desktop tower to, ideally, be sitting idle with a graphics card mining away along with whatever cold hardware setup you have. If you're doing 3D or something like video game development or whatever, then yeah a desktop.
>Do you use NAS or addtional storage device for massive data?
I don't know what "massive data" is unless you meant "massive amounts of data" then yes. But most of the time it's just video files, images, and stuff that I would use for work like print grade high resolution PDFs. But generally the answer is no you don't.
>Do you use multiple monitors for increased productivity?
No as it's not needed for personal domestic use unless you're doing it for learning how to setup and use IT equipment. Otherwise, you're burning money.
>Do you use a USP
Yes for two reasons: you can condition the electricity coming from the outlet before your equipment receives electricity, preventing for possible damage due to sudden spiking from the outlet or brownouts in addition to blackouts.
