I'm sorry, I didn't mean to start this thread with others replying with a few bitter strings attached. I do know where you are coming from though shaun. America is a pretty well off country when it comes to work, but still the taxes, living cost and everything else is outrageouse, making it difficult to get by sometimes. I decided 2 years ago that if I wanted to get the latest software that would help me in my venture toward working for pixar or dreamworks one day, I would have to give up all my other hobbies and go out to do things less frequently.
Sometimes we just need to make some sacrifices in order to get what we want most in life. Stealing is not honest or healthy. It really is sad that so many people pirate software, and the whole reason why prices keep going up on the software is because of too much theft. Maybe if the different software companies could find ways of beating the hackers to their own game, then the prices would drop for those honest enough to buy it.
Just remember, if you steal, and have a soul, the bad karma will play on you till you repent if you beleive in karma and God and all that. even if you don't beleive in that stuff, more than likely most people do have inner feelings and doing things they know they shouldn't be doing will eat at them after a while, and hopefully will come to their senses about being more honest and fare.
