"Do you have to pay for it?", taken literally, would be answered No. But what is probably meant is "Does one (generally) have to pay for it?".

This isn't one of the questions but just checking that you really want to use this FForum to expose your life of crime.

i was actually thinking of those silly artificial islands that form a map of the world and the palm tree, but as your answer precludes them this is NOT a guess!

Manufactured from animals vegetables and minerals, with a certain amount of artistry but not edible? Paid for by others but not delcuesta? Can only conclude that decaluesta is a taxidermist.

Animal, vegetable and mineral. It is therefore alive in some sense of the word. Is it coral?
