Ya know, in the car enthusiast community, we have a saying - "Buy once, cry once." Modernizing a monolithic application does indeed cost a lot, but should be done with an eye on maintainability and using lessons learned about what is changed, implementing a degree of future-proofing into the new code base. The cost for the modernization will ALWAYS be less than the cost of future maintenance.
