Welcome!
You can start by browsing to this thread:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/new-to-bitcoin-start-here-7269 Quite informative that one.
You would also do well to take note of the following:
1) Avoid cloud mining like the plague, the hassle is just too much and earnings are too little. Newbies tend to try and get into bitcoin through mining, which is not the right way imo. Prices are low atm, so take advantage of that and buy in. Try localbitcoins.com to buy some.
2) Alt coins may seem to be a very profitable venture especially the new ones.. you could get drawn into buying alts due to the hype surrounding it. Try and look at the fundamentals and avoid the hype as much as you can. If i were you, i would steer clear of alts to begin with.
3) There are quite a few ways to earn bitcoin on this forum. You can apply for signature campaigns (though you may need to build up your rank to be eligible). This thread details the signature campaigns available:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/overview-of-bitcointalk-signature-ad-campaigns-last-update-01-jan-23-6159534) Do not trust anyone blindly on here, ask for escrow if you are going to do any deal with anyone on here. Higher rank does not mean that the user is trusted. Read the trust history of the person concerned and then take a call. If you feel something is not right, steer away from the deal.
5) Do not ask for loans as a newbie, if you do you will get negative repped and that will affect your future on this forum.
My 2 satoshi!
If only i would have had the sense to write that small thread when i joined, i may have had someone helpful like you and i would have saved myself a few btc not making the mistakes you list lol
Very helpful advice for a beginner micky niceone, nothing i can add as i am not senior but i would say if something seems to good to be true then it usually is so follow number 4 like you're investment counts on it.
Welcome to the forum and have fun
