Don't give up on it. I was 58 when I bought Poser 6. It only takes about two years to learn the basics.

Seriously, get in there and start rendering. When you don't know how to do something, ask here. Someone will give you an answer. (It may be wrong, but it'll be something you haven't thought of, I bet!)

Poser if for fun. I have more fun with this than anything else I've ever done.
