I spent my 14th birthday money on an expensive Photoshop User magazine subscription to hone my expertise in a pirated copy of the software.
At 16, I would drive to the new Barnes & Noble, buy a coffee, and take advantage of its tolerance of people reading magazines they did not buy while sipping. Computer Arts, Net, and related titles motivated my career selection.
My civics teachers in high school required a $5 student subscription to Newsweek to discuss the cover story in class each week.
