Amazon has some good basics to see if you are interested. They’re not going to be as nice or warm or comfortable as some higher end stuff but it’s a start. I’d say get nice shorts for comfort then a cheap cycling jersey top. I have two of the ones linked below and like them.

I wear padded shorts underneath regular basketball shorts. I have a pair of mtb specific shorts as well, but they aren't my first choice when I go for a ride.
Also, if you're like me and have tree trunk thighs, make sure to get the padded shorts with the longest leg length, preferably ones that a cut to the knee. If you have something like a pair of these they tend to ride up and get your boys and one man in a choke hold.... These are the ones I use now
edit: words
If you're really looking to maximize your dollar, I'd probably just get regular cycling shorts and a cycling jersey over a two piece tri suit. Swim in your swimsuit, put the cycling shorts on over that, pull them off and then throw run shorts on for modesty or just run. Something like this and these would be perfectly acceptable to start out on.

that will be a VERY large quality of life improvement.
Speed will come but what i started out doing and do now is i'll do what are refered to as Intervals (Fast riding for a set time) Slow riding for a set time. I do intervals through the week as not a lot of time but on Saturday I do a nice long 30+ mile ride and try to average 12 to 14 mph (started as try to maintain a 10 mph average). Sunday and Wednesday are my rest days, although i've recently started riding on Wednesday nights just for a short jaunt around town.
