With mining you cant get more than 10-15%, cloud mining is very suspicious ...and with trading you can do a lot work and after a year you have 15k dollars left... so bring 15k to the bank an with the rest you start trading and be aware that you can lose it all...
The ROI in mining is long term and it does not give a good results if the market will not recover.
With a small amount like that, I suggest to buy coins for long term and just use the other portion in day trading if you can manage your time well.
