Concerning the cash shop (a students perspective)

Just wanted to give my thoughts concerning the cash shop real quick. I enjoy the game a lot so far and haven't spend any money on it yet. I might do so later, but it's rather unlikely. The problem for me is that I'm a student and rather poor. I just can't wrap my head around the idea of paying 30 or 40 bucks for a mount or a companion. Now I've been playing League of Legends for around 2 years and have bought stuff for at least 100, maybe even 200 bucks in that game. Why? Because I don't pay 40 bucks for a new champion or skin. I pay 5 bucks, maybe 10 - 20 for something really awesome. And that my brain can accept. Hey, 5 bucks is just like one big cup of coffee. Hey, 10 - 20 bucks is one evening out in the town. I can afford that!
So, tl;dr: I really like the game and I would love to support it, but right now, with the money I would be willing to spend in one transaction, I wouldn't be able to buy more than like one bag and that's more like a donation than actually getting something cool for my money.
Others, like people with money, might feel differently about this, but I'm sure there are some people like me who feel like they can't afford the current prices, but would gladly buy from the cash shop if the prices were different (and would probably pay quite a bit more in the long-run).
