I'm setting up a coin base account and need a little help getting set up. Anyone that has experience with this site I'm having trouble finding my wallet or anything else for that matter.
 
This is an assumption, but you have the account created and are logged in? It should be pretty easy, there is a pane on the left w/ different things listed like your wallet, your vault, buy/sell, verifications, etc. Click on "my wallet" and you are in your wallet. You'll have to at least add a bank account to buy bitcoins, that can be done under "verifications"
 
A bit of advice, I'd try circle instead of coinbase. I am currently using coin base and when you buy bitcoin, there is a 4 day waiting period (business days) the first two times I tried to buy, on the 4th day I got a cancellation notice saying that I was high risk. This is with a bank acct on file w/ plenty of $$ in it. I had to send a email asking wtf and now my 3rd time should be fine.

I haven't heard that complaint with circle yet.
 
i just started the account but didn't finish the process because it was asking for bank info. I'm very techtarded and it seemed sketchy with all the info it ask for. I appreciate the reply sir.

That is what you need to do if you want to set up a coinbase account. Some advice, after you get it all set up and buy bitcoin, do NOT be surprised if you get an email telling you that the transaction has been cancelled because it appears to be "high risk". This happened to me a couple of times w/ coinbase before my transfer finally went through. A quick google search shows that I was not the only person with this problem. Needless to say, it was a huge pain in the ass. I needed those bitcoins, and what was supposed to take a few days, took a couple weeks.

Some have reported better results with circle bitcoin, but again you will need to input personal info to create the account.
 
Thanks for the help, Bender. I haven't tried to buy any yet but if it gives me problems when I do, I may go ahead and switch to circle.
