If you could give a newbie some honest to goodness advice about making money in this industry, what would you reccomend?

study, study and study some more, like you're working towards a degree.
Get lots of experience - cheap - you will fuck things up, but at least they'll be cheap mistakes.
Learn who to listen to in forums/articles/publications and who to ignore. Ignore the noise. Don't listen to newbies pretending to know what they're talking about.
Study internet marketing in the mainstream like crazy, that's all you would need to know and then just tweak it for adult. Same principles.
It is NOT easy. It is NOT quick.
Do all this and you'll be way ahead of the crowd, because most people don't do this.
If you want making money online to be easy, fuck off.
If you're ready to treat it like a business and put the time in, you could be full time pretty quick - depends how quick you learn.
