The main problem - it's money, caus for 30000$ I can buy an apartment, I'd say a good workstation,
a lot of DVDs. Talking about software, it's not a problem in Ukraine & Russia. All U need is to take about 20 $ with the help of which U will get all versions of Maya, 3dMax, Softimage, all existing Adobe products + Windows, Linux – whatever U want.
And what is more interesting it's considering legal within the country.

But all the same we are all self-teachers, so to more professional, one has to go to Europe or States.
That's the situation here, maybe U didn't know.
