LOl you mean you'd suggest *wink* me paying some money to someone for something like this? No way! It should be free..
Wordpress.org just distributes the script on which wordpress.com runs. You have to host it yourself. The script is free, but you'll have to pay the hosting and a domain. Or run it on one of those free hosting services, like 000webhost.

Nice name,
Phinnaeus Gage, does Wordpress.com com commonly find itself in the position of just deleting people's blogs?

Yes they do. They deleted one of my blogs, back when i started building websites and had no money for domains or hosting.
