I have limited funds (less than $120) and I would like to buy a set of clippless mountain bike pedals and a pair of the “performance” style shoes. What is more important, nice shoes, or nice pedals? Which should I splurge more on?

I’m thinking about buying a bike at walmart to ride to work (I only live a mile away) and to do cardio on when I’m not running. Should I get a mountain bike or a street bike? Why is one better than the other?

I have an older Jamis Dakota mountain bike. It’s a hardtail with front shocks. Not sure if the shocks are original (bought it from someone). Is there a general guideline regarding how much pressure should be in those shocks? They seem like they should be a little harder (i.e. they’re too squishy), but I don’t want to over inflate.

I have a Giant mountain bike that has a stem that is low. I feel like a stem that is higher would be better when riding downhill. My question is, what is the usual stem degree for mountain biking? I live by the desert and some trails are very steep.
Thanks in advance.

Its a Schwinn Mountain bike(teal in color). It was purchased brand new in 1993, its been in the garage and basement for most of its life. Its still in very good shape.
I have a Schwinn mountain bike and I recently heard of getting slicks for mountain bikes to make them a little bit faster, but I have no knowledge of which ones I should look at. I commute to school five days a week, and I live in New Orleans where it rains a lot, can anyone give me any recommendations?
