Then once you start understanding the concepts more, start playing with more "pretend" money as if you just took out a loan at the bank.

You'll learn more doing this than anything else. This will force you to read, research, and understand more.
I wasn't trying to discourage him or anything. But I spend $4000 building a top of the line system this year with a few LCD monitors throw in there. When you have such limited resource it hard to see somebody get very successful. The sad truth is you need money to make money.
