dude shut the fuck up with your emotional outbursts i asked a guy a question and you flipped out and made it last all day, god damn i would have liked to been in 3 or for 4 posts trying to get some input but you took offense when none was made 
Peace, children!
Personally, I think pbmining is a good deal, but I also think hardware in hand is a good deal. It works out pretty similar. I like the control of my own hardware, but I like the payday every sunday too. Don't put your eggs in one basket.
Very well said! PBmining is not for everyone. But for people looking to get in the mining game, this is probably your best bet! I still feel that investment wise, your best bet is just buying BTC from an exchange and holding! Best of luck everyone!
