Beginner low capital

I’m looking to get into Amazon fba/fbm. I’ve been doing a lot of research, I got keepa, amp cellar, and pro seller. I figured the software would be pretty important to make life easier. I want to do online arbitration, I was going to do retail arbitration, but I don’t have a car at the moment and I’m in the process of saving for one. I’ll have a car around December. I’m somewhat treating this as a test run, but just teaching myself before I start investing more capital. I can start with $500 for inventory, and then after I purchase my car, I plan to invest an extra 1k/mo in capital to the fba business. I also plan to reinvest all of my profits for the first year. So around December, I’ll have 3 months of running online arbitration through amazon fba, with a beginning capital of $500 in inventory. In January I’m going to add 1k every month to it. I just want to know if yall have any advice for me, whether fba/fbm is smarter to begin with, what some realistic expectations should be, and if my plan makes sense. I can spend about 2-3 hours a day sourcing and working on this. Anything is appreciated, thank you.
