This is what I've done.

I'm not going to buy mining gear as it seems every supplier cant gurantee any dates for delivery.  By the time I get it, It might not be worth anything as the hash complexity is increasing FAST.

I've gone to BTCT.co and bought 4.0BTC worth of shares on Labcoin.  Yes, its a risk but I've read allot and I've taken a gamble.  If they deliver this week, I'll make money and shall sit on it for a few months.

I need something solid that will bring in BTC on a regular basis.  Anyone on anything that's working?
