Well you have a point about it costing money  yes...   but not as much as a car....  as is it will cost  $895.00
 
If you are a student in any school you may get a student discount and pay $ 195.00....  Just send them a letter with the shool's heading on it that says you are going there..... signed by someone at the school......     that is it....

 Mean time you can download a free trial that last for ever but you can only save 10 times only...   But you can learn to model...  Rhino has a medium learning curve.....

But if you are not serious about leaning 3D modeling then I go with wings...... why spend any amount...
