I have about $2,000 USD to play around with.
I have chosen to research bitcoins and it seems to be profitable. I'm ready to bite the bullet, but I just need a little help.
Should I invest all of my cash into coins? If not, then how much?
Are any other coins profitable? (Ethereum, Ripple, Litecoin)
Which wallet is unanimously agreed to be the "standard"?
Bit coin is ~$1000 each.
you MIGHT be able to get 2 coins max.
Bit coins are not a get rich quick, but they have proven (so far) to be reliable.
Etherium had its prime, but is now unstable.
Tl;dr get educated, read a lot more on finance before making any decisions!
If you're truly interested in getting into finance, I would suggest looking up Martin S's finance tutorials as a starting point.

If you decided to gamble your money with crypto, do yourself a favor and go to Bittrex.com and buy waves. You have a better chance of turning your $2000 to $200,000 with waves than $2000 to $5000 with Bitcoin
Most likely failure.
Bitcoin is not the only opportunity out there. Why fixate on it? How does it compare? After you have researched dozens of stocks, commodities and potential opportunities you will find some that did better than bitcoin and many apparent opportunities which turned out to be failures. After trading paper and discovering how easy it is to make mistakes you will learn the importance of being rational and staying grounded in reality. You will learn the mathematics behind risk and things like the importance of taking into account potential losses.
What are bitcoin's fundamentals? Bitcoin is used in part to make transactions over the internet which adds values to it, but it should be obvious from all the goobers on /biz/ and elsewhere that part of its value is due to speculation.
The question is how much money you expect to make riding a speculative bubble.

Surely if you buy bitcoins when the next ASIC based mining equipment is released you could turn profit on it?
Surely the bitcoin miners would sell all of their stakes in bitcoin and all of their equipment to replace their old equipment with the new and surely we would see a drop in price?
