Don't mine if you need to pay bills with BTC
Mine if you love tech and speculate that your positioning in the ledger will result in portfolio diversification and long term financial stability
In the end its your time and money so just try to enjoy the ride, absord the good and reject the bad (know it all's)
I don't know that I agree. Are you taking about electricity bills? I have a sizable one every month that I need to pay or I need to get rid of old gear if it's no longer profitable.
I love mining and playing with the machines. It's almost an addiction to me I just have to try out a lot of miners as it's so much fun. But I also want a ROI long term. So far I have been able to keep it going. Hopefully that continues.
If I did it just for love I would need to scale down a lot if I was losing money compared to electricity bill.
not to mention that even big farm are paying their bills, so why someone should mine only with free electricity? no-sense
you can mine if your roi is fast that's it, you can make it faster by selling your asic
