Probably you joined bitcoin at the wrong time, I know there was a point altcoins shut very high in their value and many people that were not greedy cashed some very good money home, but this was still made possible through Bitcoin, it was during bitcoin consolidation that many people started investing in bitcoin, probably that was the time you got some altcoins that yielded good profit.

I don’t know the value you bought bitcoin, but one thing I can confidently assure you is that the season of bitcoin is fast approaching and you need to just be patient to see it, when it comes, you will realized that Bitcoin pays far more than altcoins.
