I don't pay for my software, as most of it is FREE

However things that do cost money, i either get without paying, then if i like them, i'll pay.

i haven't paid for most of the software I use. but i do set myself to a rigid policy of not making any money off of that software - and since most of my skills are in coding that I can do in notepad that's ok.
