My advice is try a proof of stake mining coin for your start that will save you money on electricity and often times the whole mining setup with gear and space is just more manageable with pos coins.
Yeah you should also consider that too. There are a lot of airdrop coins that's POS/POW, try to join some and see if its profitable or not and at some point you experience mining.
But personally, mining is just for rich people who will afford all the expenses behind it like the electric bills and other stuffs., well the fact that mining rig is too pricey.
