Well, that's a tough choice, I guess. But that's what people do. If
you really can't afford it, no matter what, it doesn't matter how good
it is, does it? In that case, this entire thread is a giant waste of
time, because even if it writes code for you while cooking you dinner
you won't get it.

And anyone can go to their local community college and register for a
part-time course, and then you're a college student. I suggest
philosophy or symbolic logic, if you choose this path.

Nobody cares whether you invest in it, except for Adobe people I
guess. Download it and try it out yourself, or not. That's why they
have a trial.

I like it because it does a lot of little things that, together, make
it worthwhile. But I also got it free with Flash Builder, which I had
to buy anyway.

But this conversation seems to boil down to "I think it should be
cheaper", and that's not really a productive topic. Because it's not
going to get cheaper as a result, and it's either worth the money for
you or it isn't. Either is fine with me.
