1-) I m not sure but Mac OS X does not include /usr/local/bin in its default PATH.
More information you can look these about local bin folders

2-) Yes you can add this path(your
$HOME variable to your profile files.
I guess ruby(+rvm) installed ~/bin directory as default but you can install it to different directory if you has w permission (i.e /usr/local/bin and must add it to PATH variable in profile files (/etc/profile , ~/.bashrc|.bash_profile|.bash_login....)
