What's a cheap starter requirement to have a personal proxmox rig at home?

Good recommendations already, but to get started just use literally anything. Any x64 Dualcore with 4GB RAM is sufficient to just try stuff, even though you'll reach the memory limits sooner or later. You can poke around with it and figure out what you actually need.

Yes, this.

But whatever keeps you in the hobby - eg if you are the sort of person to benefit from planning ahead, do that (come up with a use case, plan it, learn & execute, use it), but if you like to learn & test first, then gradually build on whatever potato & rebuild as you grow, do that ... etc.
