What a rotten thing to do to your neighbor.

Because I'm using physics to my advantage? Heat rises first off and second the building is old and has cracks and holes where air comes out of. Most of the air I am taking from is from the attic.

Heat rises, so most of the heat you are taking is from the attic. Sure.

You're letting your neighbor pay to heat your home and you're letting all the heat that they pay for go out the window. It is much more expensive to pay their heating bill because of you and you are doing it intentionally. It is a rotten selfish thing to do and you should be ashamed.

I'm still paying the electricity to run the fan. I also have my PC running all day as well as various other electric devices that produce heat.

Cool. That doesn't change the fact that you're bragging about having your heat off while siphoning off your neighbor and keeping your windows open while you do it to make it even worse. Your electronic devices are not heating your apartment. Your neighbor is.
