Been there, done that, gave up because it’s not a justifiable expense for individual use. Wrote a couple of Android apps instead but can't really use them daily.

Presumably you work in tech.

Every employer I’ve ever had will reimburse my personal dev account fee as an educational expense. Have you tried asking?

Apple (and other tech companies) offer free versions of products to students, but they don't require you be a full time student. I take a class once a year in a topic that I am interested in, which qualifies me for these free programs. Classes can be as cheap as $25 if you're in WA.

No, because I am not in any pertinent product line. And I would never use corporate resources for personal use.
