Reward for helping a newb install High Sierra from scratch.

I don't know a thing about Hackintosh, except that I want it. I'm still doing reading on stuff, like Kexts or kernalpanics. But I have a free day today, so if anyone wants to help, I offer whatever I have left in my Paypal (like $7 or something). I have a iMac, so I can download the OS and stuff. I also have a USB 2.0 flash drive from Sandisk to use. My part's list is below, I'm installing OSX on the 128GB ssd.

Once OSX is up and running, I'll send the Paypal. Just take mercy on me for being a newb, so ELI5 for most everything.
