As a new user you should probably run a supported release version, such as 
14.0.  Releases have binary updates available via freebsd-update. (Upgrading 
the base OS via pkg is still experimental.) Current has no such feature, so you 
need to download/update the source and recompile.

See the Handbook chapter on upgrading FreeBSD:
