Bitcoin Forum

I have NEVER seen such a poorly introduced system.  EVERY article that I read assumes that I already have some Bitcoins and I want to buy something.  Great, but how do I initially set up the Bitcoin account with some "physical" money?  Never addressed in articles that I have read.  For example, I have $1000US that I want to convert into Bitcoin so that I can buy something using Bitcoins.  HOW?????

It's not that hard If you're using the right exchanges, the UI itself should be self explanatory. Assuming that you live in the U.S or EU, I suggest the following exchanges: Coinbase (best option probably), Gemini, Bitstamp, Bitfinex, Coinmama, BitPanda. (depends in your preferences when it comes to the payment methods).

It is dependant on your location. You can buy on Local Bitcoin or exchanges (just remember never leave your crypto on an exchange, always move to a hard wallet.) There are many exchanges I use Kucoin, Kraken and a couple of others.

There are several avenues to convert your fiat currency to bitcoin, it all depends on your locality or country of residence. For instance, coinbase is a good website for anyone who is in US to buy or sell bitcoin, there are also other avenues such as escrows where you can easily buy bitcoin in most countries.

those articles you read don't get into it because it is obvious and it would be off-topic to explain such an obvious thing!

lets say you want to go to Japan as a tourist and spend some money. on a website explaining the tourists spots and places where you can go and spend money is not going to also explain how you can convert your USD to JPY, they won't tell you "where you should deposit your US$"!!!
so the real question is, why do you expect a different approach for bitcoin? and why do you want to be told how to convert your USD to another currency called BTC while you don't ask the same question when it comes to JPY? the place where you do the conversion is also called the same: a currency exchange.

May you've been using wrong terms to search?

I believe there are dozen if not hundred guides on "how to buy bitcoin" out there, and not buy stuff with bitcoin for sure.

To answer your question, getting FIAT to crypto has so many ways to do.

Poorly introduced system? What are you talking about?
