Give someone else some money?
I've seen this topic before and it's always this question: "Can I give someone my Steam Wallet Cash?" And the answers were either no, or some sort of solution that wasn't specific, so What i'm gonna ask is: what's the easiest method to lend someone Money on Steam? (Be it trading or something) and the method can't involve making another account thats outside of Steam. Please help! I really want to help a friend buy a game, And neither of us have the money to buy it unless we somehow sent one person's money to the other.

You can buy an item on the market, send it to your friend and have your friend sell the item.

Is there a way to at all trade items for Money? Or is the tax of that even more than the 15% I've heard of?

No, there isn't.

So if either one of us sell an item on the market and the other buys it, then how do one of us find said item directly? Is there a 'what your friend is trading' page or would we have to scroll down for a while until we see said item?

Buy a gift card through the steam store and gift it to them.

Some items are listed but others are just written alongside the price and how many people offer that price. As I said, it's best to trade the item and have the friend sell it on the market for a certain price instead of risking the item being snatched by a bot or something.

This leaves me to another question: Is the card sent to some sort of inventory or does it have to be mailed to my friend as a physical Card? I do not know how this works.

P.s: Do note that you can't use existing funds in your steam wallet.. you'll have to use new ones.

Your friend will receive a digital gift card.

I also read into this a bit, and Apperently, I can't buy a digital gift card with my steam wallet money. This method is currently not of use to me.

Then either use a credit/debit card. Failing that, give your friend items for him to sell as the above user mentioned previously.
