Build my leet 90's hacker wall of screens.
"I don't even see the code anymore. It's blonde, brunette, readhead…"
If you are using a business laptop they will only really power 2 monitors and you can use the laptop screen as a third. If you have a desktop the possibilities are endless with graphics cards. Seen setups in some of the backs with 10 plus screens on a wall pumping out data and realtime graphs and charts. All about how much money you got.
My WFH setup is a 24" monitor each side of my laptop and is more than enough i feel unless you are doing things like trading or coding then more monitors could needed
I just replaced 3 monitors that I estimate are about 8-9 years old with 3 x Dell 27 4K UHD Monitor S2721Q.
I will probably e-recycle the older ones, they were going blurry.
In the past with excess monitors I have given them to family who might have needed an extra one or replace one.

I have maybe 6-8 LCD monitors of various ages in my shed, all the way back to 4:3 ones. Excellent for legacy uses and things like the original Xbox that didn't support 16:9.
Only wish I'd kept a couple of CRT monitors as well, but they all died

Ever play those gun games shooting at the TV? I think they don't work (or not reliably) on LCD/LEDs
If it is still a genuinely good monitors then you sell it. Big demand for working from home gear and people do not want to wait.
Sold my 5 year old monitor for $350, bought it new for $690.
Connect all 3-4 to the same computer
Hand me down to friends.
