VeriumReserve (VRM) is a decent CPU-only mining coin you might want to take a look at. I've been mining it the last couple of weeks. There is a pool and client downloads at http://vrm.poolinat0r.com.

I have a Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3,40 GHz (x64) and 16 GB ram

I'm going to guess that you would get around 250 hashrate in Monero, maybe less. Somewhere close to $120 a year at $0.10/kw/h power costs. Download the Nicehash Miner program and let it run the benchmark for your CPU to find the exact hashrate to expect. www.nicehash.com

Well, comparing it to claiming on BTC faucets, is it worth it? I have traded and lost about 200k sats and don't want to dive again until I learn trading. I have tried gambling too and I lost everything I won.

Currently, the best one seems to be Aeon (2x to 4x higher hashrates when mining Aeon compared to mining Monero due to the cryptolight algorithm). You can still mine Monero and other cryptonotes, it's still profitable even with the power-hungry FX series.

It's also possible that I've overlooked some golden nugget for CPU mining, I'm curious what others might have to say.

I have a low-end laptop right now. I have an Acer Aspire ES1-431 Laptop with 2GB memory Windows 10. I am not really tech savvy but I think its worth the shot.

Even with free electricity, you're wasting your time. The only chance you have of making any profit is from long term appreciation. In which case trading would be more effective than trying to mine with with a low end cpu and competing against the hash from GPU's, ASICS and botnets.
