You can rent a real (not virtual) 100Mbps server for less than $10/month.
I realize that $10 can be a lot of money if you're struggling to put
food on the table. For others, though, that's the cost of 2 beverages
at Starbucks per month. Not such a burden.
There is also the option of donating money to organizations that run
exit nodes. This is less desirable than running an exit yourself (due
to further concentration of exit capability by big players) but still
beneficial. I doubt that they would turn away a $5/month donation.
