You should've bought the processed 10q and 10k data ranging many years for all US stocks. I bet you can get that for under $1000.

This is the most basic securities data that exists in finance, perhaps you can even get it for free from some Yahoo or other retail data source.

Yes, but I was in graduate school making $1500/mo and was doing it mostly for fun as a class project. I was also very naive about how much effort it would take to process that data. Both google and yahoo have current data which is easy to get but not historical. Google didn't really help me find what I was looking for.
