I have bought the stand alone versions for three separate boxes of mine 
now from stacksocial.com.  Right now they have Office version 2024 
offered for $120US.  Office 2021 is $60US, and Office 2019 for $35US.

I previously have bought versions 2003, 2007, and 2010.  I needed more 
of the features the newer versions had.  I bought version 2021 for my 
newest box that can run windows 11.  On my laptop I bought 2019 version. 
  The differences are small in what they can do, and weren't things that 
affected my use.  I believe they had to do with allowing others to work 
on things together somehow, not specifically sharing, but I can't 
remember exactly the advantages of 2021.  All the basic functionality 
were otherwise identical.  On the new laptop I just bought my wife, I 
just bought a 2019 for the $35US for her.

Summary:  I would recommend version 2019 if cheap as possible is one of 
the conditions.
