You want financial independence from your family go get a job. Mining with the gear you can afford is essentially just siphoning money from your parents because they pay the power bill. Save time/money and just loot their wallet/purse outright if that's your intention. Next to no chance to get a legitimate return on your investment with that gear or anything your likely able to afford. Mining is gambling, not an investment and should only be done by people who can afford to loose. BTC or any cryptocurrency is highly volitile and could drop or spike at any minute. if you really are hardset on getting into crypto your better off just buying the currency outright. Or better yet, get a job and start saving for school/rent.
My intention was not to seek critique from those who do not totally understand what happens in my life, With my current gpu mining of altcoins i make more than enough to pay my portion of the electricity calculated with a "Kill-a-watt" that is used by my current miners. Additionally, i am not the only one in my household who is mining. I have set my father up to be doing nice hash at a highly profitable rate, And i work a part time job 3 days a week at our family shop. All of this while maintaining a 3.5 gpa in college. So I don't mean to say what you're saying has no merit, but i simply disagree and feel like such a pointed response was unnecessary overkill in the situation.
