Crested Geckos are ridiculously easy to care for and a very good place to start.

You should consider a bearded dragon. Beardies are very durable, don't get too big, and have great personalities, which make them a good species for just about anyone. Beardies are docile, but also curious and attentive like a puppy, most like being handled (at least they don't seem to mind), and when my beardie gets cold he likes to snuggle. They're diet is made up of lots of crickets and veggies, they need a UV light and heat lamp and a big tank.

Whichever species you get, make sure you do a lot of research. Also, keep in mind that keeping a lizard pet healthy can end up being pretty expensive.

An adult bearded dragon needs a tank of at least 40 gallons, and bigger is better. That's not huge, but if you're really tight for space you might want to consider one of the smaller geckos.

Do they need live food? Heat lamp/rock? Do they need anything more than a tree, some baby food, and a misting of water? If the answer to any of these is "yes", then they are not easier than a Crested Gecko.

Actually the answer to all them is NO, do your research.

40 gallons..hmm, you wouldn't know how many fee that is would you? Cause I might be able to move my dresser and computer desk over to make room.

And adding to my last question, I do have a 10 gallon tank I could put him in until he gets bigger, but how long does it take for him to grow to bi for it..from a baby?

A 10 gallon tank is definitely suitable for a baby beardy. They grow pretty fast, however, so you'd need a bigger one after a few months. I'm not exactly sure how long it would take for a beardy to grow too big, I don't remember, but you can find out if you do some research. And a 40 gallon tank is about four feet long.

Uh... Leopard Geckos need a heat source and live food.

Even if LGs didn't need those things, that would make them equally easy, not easier.

I have a pair of house geckos tha I caught shitting in my linen press. They're damn near indestructable and don't need a heat lamp or associated other equipment. They're also quite tolerant to unsuitable types of habitat, so you've a bit of time to get things right before they drop dead on you.
