1. It's cool, and a great challenge. 2. Russia is an amazing, huge, economically strong country. 3. Russian people are great fun. 4. Russian culture is super-interesting. :D

With Russian you can make yourself understood over such a geographically big area, that it would be stupid not to want to learn it. And it's no con that it sounds amazing.
