I suggest doing some reading on mining.  Really Bitcoin mining is sha256 mining.  And most altcoins worth anything is scrypt.

But most new gear is base on mining BTC.  So it by far is the most common at this point.  As far as getting started you really need to look at gear out there.  Do some ROI math, and choose what you want to buy.

But you need to make a budget.  Also be aware most "free" don't have a ton of extra electricity so don't go crazy ordering a ton of miners to start. If you tell us more about electricity we can tell you more about how much you can handle.

first of all where do you live?

country is all I need.

second of all is how much power can you burn for free?

the best equipment right now is the antminer s-7  it burns 1200 watts 24/7/365    it earns about  11.85 usd a day before power.

  it costs a lot it costs 1650 usd

gear like the antminer s-3  earns  1.20 usd a day it burns 400 watts 24/7/365     it costs around 100 usd 

both of the above need power supplies  the s-7 needs a very good one.  the s-3 can use a cheaper one.

I live in Kuwait where if anyone works in the government they get free electricity and my dad works there so its not a concern to me I just want to know the best hardware to get without worrying about electricity cost

From what I'm seeing S5+,S7, KNC Neptune,  sp35/31. I saw a few on suryastore that have good TH/price of machine but not sure if the site is legit or not. I like the look of the rockminer and smart miners.

Also electricity is a factor. I'd rather a pissed off landlord who bundles their electricity knocking on my door rather government officials. And a dad with no job. Seriously dude think this through. Think of the environmental impacts of running a bunch of inefficient cheap machines just because you think you can.

Edit: Google search and back in March. Tells all. It's amazing isn't it lol

As the others mentioned, tell us about your available power.
How many watts do you have available? Or, amps at volts?

Best of luck

This is good the above question about how many amps you have is good to know.  Also I'm not familiar with Kuwait is it 220/240? Or 110/120?

But after figuring that out the next thing is sound do you have extra room, or area to put miners in?  Or will they be in a shared room?  This makes a HUGE difference.

Can I come live with you?   
First off be ready for the heat, the noise.  You should consider those factors... you don't want to piss the
parents off.
