No, it wasn't your money, or no, it wasn't your money once handed to them?  

Basically, you're saying you bought the product, then you don't care what
they do through the support you've given them by buying the product.  Am I
interpreting this correctly?

No it wasn't. Once I spent it it was theirs. Would you like it if your boss
told you how to spend your pay check?
