So, yeah, just because you suck at mining doesn't mean everyone does.

No, I just don't rip people off selling ASICs I bought.
You may not care about ripping people off - meanwhile I can do well without ripping anyone off.
My $ input to Bitcoin was 2.5 years ago when I bought a rig that paid itself off that year.
Everything else has been minor things.
Oddly enough I've made quite a bit more than that now.
Though, my >700GH/s at the moment (and increasing regularly) says I don't suck at mining.
