Is 16gb ram enough for vms?

It all depends on what you plan on using the primary machine for and what you plan on using the VM for. If I had to guess, you'll probably want a minimum 16GB RAM. It will be near enough to run one Windows VM or couple of Linux VM. I'd also suggest to extend RAM to 16GB.

Is it worth getting 16gb ram over 8gb?
The increased capacity that 16GB of RAM provides over 8GB makes it the clear winner. 8GB of RAM may be suitable for basic functions, but it quickly seizes up when multiple programs try to operate at the same time. You might not always need 16GB of RAM but you'll be happy to have it when push comes to shove.
