I am new, I have questions!

Hi. How do I find the questions people have already asked and answered because my questions might already be answered there? My main question is, the terms said you get paid for answering relevant questions with relevant answers, who decides if it is relevant? When do you find out if you answered something that counts as money? Will it immediately show up or later? How do I make money giving advice on this site? How do you add someone as a friend if they are not already on your friend list since they won't see your message unless they are and how do you even find anyone to add? I am pretty computer savvy, but so far I am not understanding how this works very well. Thanks, MrsAdvice
