I don't think I'm under any illusion on getting rich. I looked into BTC years ago and like many couldn't be bothered with it after mining a few thousand coins. Kind of regret not doing it further but hey, shit happens.

So why not invest a little in alt currencies? What have you got to lose? Like this dodgecoin shit, mine for a few days, get a few thousand coins and sit on it. If it takes it, wahey, if not, you've lost maybe 20mins of your time and a weekend's worth of CPU time?
