Plenty of folks have succeeded with phpBB forums.
The success or failure of a forum has very little to do with the software.
When the forum becomes successful, then vB might be a good investment because it is better received by members and better able to handle more users and activity, but it shouldn't matter what software you use to get to that point.
In other words, save your money for now. Try another phpBB forum. Promote it to death. Treat your members well. If/when it becomes successful, you can convert it to vB later.
