if you are collective, in order to start off you need that initial supply of money in order to support a fleet and capture colonies and plunder, you will need to focus on making food
and a good surplus of it
then sell the food one the market, and research all of your ship technology, and make more food, and sell it
then, build up a fleet, and look for easy targets (lots of planets low power, offline is a good hint they arent defended either)
then maintain a good buffer of colonies that make some food for you to sell when not fighting, and just keep on capturing and plundering, and hope you dont hit a bad losing streak

i mean how do you start off. i can never seem to have enough money to build anything and then attack with enough PR
collective have 2 paths to take to make money
1. research housing: this path is used for fighting , then building houses on your colonies then plundering ( this will give you large chunks of money at a time ) but doesnt give you an income etc ( this path is for empires who fight all day )
2. Research Agriculture: collective are good food producers , researching agriculture and expanding your empire will allow you to sell food and hold large fleets while still technicly making money
however some empires will mix both of these infra so that they can do both
