i think Bitcoin is only profitable if done at large scales. you must get expensive mining equipment and of course it consumes a lot of electricity monthly. Also its usually much more cost effective to buy Bitcoins with this money instead of using it to buy mining equipment.
if i better buy bitcoin then hold it to get the excess. Indeed minning is a great way to get bitcoin, but for me it needs to learn more about how to mine it, and it seems like it takes a long time.
