Lets say I set a very low transaction fee for a bitcoin transaction(from one of my own wallets to another). I also have mining equipment which is mining for bitcoins. Is there anyway to get that transaction request directed towards me ? In other words can I process my own transactions by giving it priority? If so how do I do this?

Please ask one question per post; otherwise it gets very hard to keep straight what is answered and what hasn't.

While you can prioritize your own transaction, it won't do much good, unless you're in control of a large hash pool. The probability of a single user ever completing a block specifically crafted with their own transaction is extremely small. It is better to just pay a reasonable transaction fee. – abelenky Oct 15 '17 at 23:58

If I want to send 10USD worth of bitcoins, I have to pay 6USD as fees? – ROn SC Oct 16 '17 at 13:15
Yes, you can. This is the exact purpose of the RPC command prioritisetransaction.
