MacOS software updates are free. The issue is that suddenly Apple decides your perfectly functioning computer is no longer supported, and after that in a matter of 2 years you will no longer find any new software for your OS, and then you have 3 options:

Buy a new computer.
Hackintosh it with a dosdude patch to use the latest version of MacOS.
Just install GNU/LINUX.

I have been replacing work laptops every 4 years and home ones every 5 to 6. I've never had an os update issue. I suspect your concerns are more than 15 years old.

You think that's a lot? I don't have a single laptop younger than 6 years, at home or work.
