New to Crypto, Looking for some Friends.

I'm a pretty young guy, still in my last year of school. Hoping to go to university next year. All year I've been hearing about the big bad world of crypto, people making millions, losing it all and a whole lotta people saying "it's the dotcom bubble all over again". 95% of people I know have bad things to say about it so, naturally, I wanted to get involved. Right now I have a pretty slim income to spend on any form of speculating. I am really just looking for some knowledgeable people to come and share what they know with me. Over the next year or so, I plan on getting into the nitty gritty stuff and really try to see if there is money making potential for myself (I know there certainly is for others) and to hopefully bring myself some joy in the process. The community seems like a genuinely nice bunch of folk, so any help anyone could give would be of great help.
