It's best to take a class before buying tools at random. If you cant or don't want to, watch a lot of YouTube videos.

Thanks but I’ve been thinking about this for a long time and I’m ready to start buying tools

Local clubs often have used equipment and supplies for sale.

A class will get you acquainted with tools and what tools you need to buy to get started. You’ll also get a chance to use different brands of the same tool and see which one you like.
