The tech test is very easy to pass,usually just a handfull of hours to study and you will have the license in hand,and a basic 2 meter rig and antenna can be bought for around 200$ more or less.

Basic 2 meter radio around $170
2 meter antenna .... around $40 to $50

Fees for taking the test ( the fees are to process and mail all the paper work) about $20....after that as long as you dont allow license to expire renews are free

A person can spend that on a marine set up or a CB set up and not have near the abilities that ham offers
