After some thought I think I will go with the 39gs... In my opinion it's both a better option for an inexperienced individual like me and also an economical one. In the end I thing its capabilities overcome my demands.
Right now it's finals period in my uni so after I am done , I am planning on getting a small job to make some money on my own....if things go well I'll be a 50g owner by June!!! I would really like to use this RPN system..!

Good choice.
The HP-39gs and its CAS capable HP-40gs sibling are sophisticated calculators that can now be acquired for a modest price.
Their only "sin" is missing RPN, but again, their intended audience is different from what many of the 70's old school boys, like myself, used to be.
Back then, RPN was the way to go if you had the money to spend on a expensive HP calculator. If not, well, we always had Casio and Texas using algebraic systems.

Surely you found it already, but just in case, here are some useful documentation of the 39gs and 40gs:
