Welcome to the forum!
Investing in Bitcoins, wise choice!
Just make sure you read about Bitcoin, as Bitcoin can be volatile.
Mining is such a big term, mining yourself will most likely not be worth it.
Mining Equipment is very expensive and investing in Mining Sites are mostly scammy!
I would use FIAT and buy some Bitcoin, store them in a Wallet or use Trading to increase that amount.
