Don't you think your title can be a little misleading especially for newbies who are very new to the space and eager to invest? I agree that these altcoins are created solely for profit but the thing is if you take a decent amount of time and  work to understand the space then you have a very high chance of benefiting alot from it.

The good thing about bitcoin investments is that it is very lightweight, easy to do and more secure and off grid depending on how private you make your coins.
