P.S. Can someone tell me when exatly are they shutting Dust, if they ever do that.
Spending money on DUST 514 ensures the continual development of DUST 514. If the company (CCP) is steadily making a profit from a service or game (EVE/DUST514) then you can bet they will not want to stray from that project to start another one in the hopes of that project being more successful i.e. Project Legion
So in conclusion if you would like to see DUST 514 go on living for 5 - 10 more years then you should probably support the development of the game! if not then we all will need to shell out over a grand for a new PC and all of us should be ready to start paying a subscription.

People will spend 50 dollars for a good dinner and a movie with friends. If you will get the same amount of enjoyment out of your purchase it is the same thing; 50 dollars for some fun. If you have the expectation that spending that money will get you 'sexual intercourse' in regards to DUST you are probably being too hopeful.
Frankly, I would expect nothing to transfer over the Legion. If you have that in mind, are you still willing to buy the items? Pessimistically, "Legion has been quite for so long and the team wants to get a whole bunch of new EVE players into Legion that there is no way that they are going to let us keep 40 million SP and millions of ISK. At the best, you are keeping your name, BPO's as skins, and maybe your Loyalty Rank."
DUST has to be shut off at some point, like all games really. Sony is only going to support the PS3 for so long and IF Legion comes out and there is ANY kind of transfer, I highly doubt that CCP will continue to work on DUST.
If DUST is making money then why even continue development on a game (Legion) that may never see the light of day? Thats a waste of good resources!
Personally I am a console player, I have always been a console player and i will always be a console player, so i keep the faith that as long as you all and myself help support the game we will NEVER have to see Legion!! Because I would probably hate the game anyways on a PC.

I'd hate to total up my spending in the game, but I support the things I want to see do well.
People ***** and complain about CCP, but at least they allow you to have input. Hell we have player named weapons.
Fanfest last year I would have given you the opposite answer, but Rattati, the DEVs and the CPM crew have proven that there is a lot of care and plenty of work going into this game.
I consider spending money on it a way of thanking them....and also funding them to keep at it.
Well said sir!

Maybe that's why you suck  don't tell me you have never heard of PAY TO WIN! You don't want to be cannon fodder maybe purchase a little something that will give you a better edge against your opponent.
