title says it all

One never really 'owns' land in SL.  Whether paying rent to another resident or tier to LL, there is some ongoing cost involved after the initial purchase.  The fee may be weekly or monthly.  For example, I live on a modest island parcel where I pay rent once/month. If I want to move, I just stop paying the rent rock and move on.

So, no, you cannot own land without paying something on a regular basis.

maybe if you pay LL a 12 billion dollar lump sum up front ?

"I want everything for free, waaahhhhh" 

Your title does say it all.

You really don't own anything at all in this Life, even what resides within you belongs to Another.

If you become premium and pay yearly you can get a tierfree 512m2 plot. Even more if you donate it to a group! That way you pay yearly plus a one time price for the land.

It all depends on what you want. Sandboxes can be used for building (free) and there's a lt of places that are almost empty if you want some peace and quiet

You're still here?

Can I have your stuff when you DO go?

Assuming you have any, that is.

Of course it is alright. It is how SL operates.

You can find all kinds of free stuff all over SL, but the one thing you can't get for free, is land.  Even premium members that get 'free' land have to pay a premium membership fee for a very small plot but you have to buy the plot first.  You can bet the 'free' monthly tier of 512sqm is figured into the cost of membership.

Only early beta users got free land on the main land.

I wish you hadn't said that!

Now LuminousElf will start a thread asking if anybody knows where he can get a time machine.

A free one, of course.
