now they can charge an yearly fee for me to write Word documents. I don't own anything, I have to rent it.

You don't have to rent it. You can still purchase Microsoft Office (as opposed to subscribe) for 149.99 if you are so inclined.

For those that don't believe in paying for software, web and mobile versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneDrive (up to 5GB) and Outlook are free.

Another hack is to somehow get a referral from a Microsoft employee. I believe they are allowed to give out 5 per year. With a referral, you can buy an Office 365 subscription for 19.99 instead of the standard 69.99 from the Microsoft Store.
