so I want to get into legacy but I don't really know what deck I should start out with. People tell me red deck wins is one of the more strait forward decks to play but what other real starting points do I have. I'd rather not have to buy FoWs and wastelands right out of the gate so I'd like a deck to ease myself into the format and get a hang of the speed and tricks of the format
Test out decks on XMage or Cockatrice.
Cheap decks include:
Oops all spells
Dredge
Landless dredge
Burn
And other decks when substituting shocks for duals.
Go for shardless bug
You could pick a "Stompy" deck, like soldiers. It's not tier one but I can be good and for tier 2 decks it's super cheap. Storm is another option. I play elves which is cheaper then some, but 3-4 gaea's cradles doesn't count as "budget"
Not sure if you are interested, but out Intro to Legacy podcast is about to publish episode 3 on Monday (barring delays) which will be on "why get into legacy" and/or "how to play legacy on a budget. We record tomorrow.

The first two episodes may start off too basic for you, but we wanted to start low and bring the uninitiated up to our level.
Thanks for all the feed back guys. What does oops all spells entail?

It's a combo deck. You use {Balastrude Spy} or {Undercity Informer} to mill your whole deck because you play no lands. When you mill, {Narcomemba}s come onto the battlefield and you sacrifice them to flashback {Dread Return}. With Dread you reanimate {Angel of Glory's Rise} which in turn reanimates {Azami, Lady of Scrolls} and {Laboratory Maniac}. Then you draw a card and win
